Blacksmith
     3 x 3.5 x 4.5"

"Those boys will do themselves a mischief," he said; then turning to Colin, "Here, you sir, take that hammer.  This isn't a safe place for idle people.  If you don't work you'll be knocked to pieces in no time..."

And thereupon he took up his other hammer and began to work again, saying to Colin, "Now, young man, as long as you get a blow with your hammer in for every one of mine, you'll be quite safe..."

Colin took up his hammer and did his best.  But he soon found that he had never known what is was to work.  The smith worked a hammer in each hand, and it was all Colin could do to work his little hammer with both his hands..."
