- Once a year a coppersmith will come to the village to re-tin pans. Everybody flogs around them and has their traditional pans, that they use over an open wood fire, re-tinned. It made for a great opportunity to see them at work. As a foreigner living in a small village in Turkey life is one big adventure.

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.
Thanks, you can tell it's dissapearing in France. The copper pans are all for sale on the brocantes. I should have bought some when I lived there haha.
Now that is a fascinating film ! proper Turkey !
Just stumbled by…
Love the video
Sending love and light to all…🙏🏼
Superb, what a joy to see real craftsmen at work. And what an amazing finished product. Thank you, keep these vids coming. Marvellous!
Thanks, it is exactly those things that keeps me happy. It brings the kid out in me
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.
I whas so lucky to spot them.
He could do polishing outside of the pan. But its a great deal. I hope you are still enjoying that pan.
I do and it's just the factr that they go around the villages ones a year that makes my day every time.

I would love to find more but that also gets harder here.

He sure is.
This is a very interesting video thank you for sharing.
Great Video. Thank you.
Thanks! It's so special to be able to see them work.
Hayırlı olsun :D güle güle kullan
Absolutely Fantastic. I would have loved to have seen this. Do the " Tin Men " Go to Dalyan also or is it just Candir ?
I dont think they go to Dalyan and I never know when they are here. I was lucky to spot them. They come ones a year.
Whats the thing that he sprinkles on?
I don't know but it fumes terrible. Mean stuff. Maybe so the tin can bind?
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.
cemtheman Yes I think it is ammonium chloride. Good for his lungs...
Wouldn't the Tin come out in your food when the pan is heated? Is this safe?
Its safe. They are also the most expensive pans to buy in Europe. It's alluminium that you should worry about.
Güle güle kullan çok güzel olmuş da, 140-150 tl mi? Çok fazla değil mi sence de?
A hand made copper pan? I can live with that, specially as they let me film it. Ask an Usta to work a day and they want more.
@@AtHomeInTurkey if you give hım 140 turkish lira just for tinning,i think it is very expensive
Normally he should wanted to 50-60 turkish lira from you.
@@aligoz9643 I only gave him money for the pan. Tinning was included.
@@AtHomeInTurkey really ,it is nice,and Good price
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.
I so understand your thinking. I was very new still at the whole video making thing. Still learning to this day.
Looks ruined..
