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