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