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