Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
Hot work
There's a hammer there somewhere
Scythe straightening
Starting again
Scythe straightening tools
Shaping a horse shoe
A hot job working the bellows
Happy hammering
Cooling down
A job well done
Hammer at the ready
Making a horse shoe
The big hammer at the ready
Faster than the camera.
Straightening a scythe blade
Happy at the bellows
Working the bellows
