Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
Faster than the camera.
The horse shoe progressing
Scythe straightening tools
Two hammers are better than one
Team work at the forge
At the ready
There's a hammer there somewhere
Hammer raised
Too fast to photograph.
Happy hammering
A job well done
Hammer at the ready
Straightening a scythe blade
Working the bellows
Hot work
Scythe straightening
A hot job working the bellows
Making a horse shoe
The scythe tools
Happy at the bellows
Scythe straightening
Another shoe on the way
