Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
A hot job working the bellows
Faster than the camera.
At the ready
The horse shoe progressing
Happy at the bellows
Straightening a scythe blade
A job well done
Scythe straightening
Too fast to photograph.
Team work at the forge
Scythe straightening tools
The big hammer at the ready
Shaping a horse shoe
