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