Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
Scythe straightening
Hammer raised
Straightening a scythe blade
There's a hammer there somewhere
Scythe straightening
Too fast to photograph.
Scythe straightening tools
Cooling down
The big hammer at the ready
A hot job working the bellows
The horse shoe progressing
Another shoe on the way
Happy at the bellows
At the ready
Happy hammering
Faster than the camera.
A job well done
Working the bellows
Shaping a horse shoe
Starting again
The scythe tools
Hammer at the ready
Two hammers are better than one
A little help from a large hammer
Making a horse shoe
With hammer at the ready
