Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
Shaping a horse shoe
Too fast to photograph.
Scythe straightening tools
Team work at the forge
Making a horse shoe
Hot work
The horse shoe progressing
A job well done
Cooling down
Working the bellows
Another shoe on the way
The scythe tools
Hammer at the ready
Scythe straightening
Happy at the bellows
There's a hammer there somewhere
The big hammer at the ready
