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