After over 30 years of crafting beautiful quality tin products, our Master Tinsmith has retired.
As a result of decreased demand for tin products and rising costs of materials we are discontinuing our tin products.
Please call before ordering to see IF we still have what you are looking for in stock.
Our tin shop is world-famous for its quality and craftsmanship. In addition to canteens and cartridge box tins, we have a nice variety of other handcrafted products. These items are all hand-made here by experts.
The craft of the tinsmith (or tinker) is fast disappearing. Many of the these items are hand worked, hand soldered, and riveted - true to the tinner's art of the past. We do make the concession of using lead-free solder on the joints of items which may be used for food and drink.
Lead free solder is used for food and drink. Lead free sholder has a lower melting point; therefore, it is important to keep items 1/2 full of liquid when cooking over a campfire.
Best quality. Originals of these cups are hard to come by nowadays. Probably millions were made, but they were so useful that they have been utilized to extinction.
