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