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