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