Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
Faster than the camera.
The horse shoe progressing
A little help from a large hammer
Team work at the forge
Hammer at the ready
Working the bellows
Shaping a horse shoe
Making a horse shoe
Scythe straightening
Too fast to photograph.
A job well done
At the ready
The scythe tools
There's a hammer there somewhere
Starting again
Hammer raised
With hammer at the ready
