Turkish village lifestyle - The Coppersmith Came to the Village to offer re-tinning of Copper Pans 

This profession, which was very popular in France in the past in the same way as in this video, has almost completely disappeared. There are still some itinerant tinsmiths but they are very rare. They go to each place once a year. They make copper cooking pots but also many objects from churches. It is very impressive to see them working. Impressive because they work outside. We see on one side those who wash the pots, on the other side those who make the tinning. And then on the other hand, those who do the polishing. We see children who handle acids with great care. The ancients constantly give advice on precautions. They show the younger ones their injuries because one day they did not pay enough attention. And then all the objects that are finished are placed in the same place. Always outside, in the sun. As a reward for all these workers, a reward for their eyes. Perfectly aligned and tidy. Copper pots for restaurants, those of individuals, church crosses, chandeliers and all brass objects. Everything shines brightly, it's superb! These workers stay in the same place for a week and then they disappear for another region. Today, we have more chance of seeing this work in India, in Turkey, etc ... It is sad to see that this beautiful profession is slowly disappearing. And it will eventually disappear in all countries. Unfortunately, this is inevitable. In the meantime, you must take advantage of these beautiful images! Thank you for sharing.

Now that is a fascinating film ! proper Turkey !

I'm speechless!! This is amazing! We are so far removed from absolutely everything! These videos fill my heart! Thank you so very much for sharing them with us.

He could do polishing outside of the pan. But its a great deal. I hope you are still enjoying that pan.

he is master!!

This is a very interesting video thank you for sharing.

Hayırlı olsun :D güle güle kullan

Great Video. Thank you.

Absolutely Fantastic. I would have loved to have seen this. Do the " Tin Men " Go to Dalyan also or is it just Candir ?

Yet another great video 👏👏👏 I wonder what is the white powder splatered on the pan before and together with tin? Is it ammonium chloride or something? AFAIK, some flux is used for tinning.

Whats the thing that he sprinkles on?

Wouldn't the Tin come out in your food when the pan is heated? Is this safe?

Güle güle kullan çok güzel olmuş da, 140-150 tl mi? Çok fazla değil mi sence de?

This was a great video, lovely to see a local craft and a bit of Turkey. Please - never add music to any demo, DIY, tour, cooking, or wildlife video. It absolutely ruins the content. This music is super irritating. Any music will compete with voice and natural sounds and it is sensory overload. It is also YOUR choice not mine. I came to see Turkey, and tinning. I did not come to listen to your selection of artificial sounds. Please understand that every time you add noise called 'music' it is insufferable to the viewer and being forced down their ears. They did not come to hear music but to see a craft. fyi to viewers - Retinning is not rocket science. You clean the pans of any rust (steel not copper), degrease them and clean of tarnish. Heat up pan. Apply a liquid flux like Harris Stay Clean Liquid Flux, add tin pellets and heat over flame till tin melts. Then using fireproof gloves and a wad of fiberglass insulation, you rub the tin all around the pan to coat it. Scrape off liquid tin in a bucket of water, for reuse. Done. All flux must be neutralized and cleaned off pan before use. You do not need professional tinners if you cannot find them.

Looks ruined..
