Tarihi Değirmenci Sözen

Historical Miller Sözen in Eminönü continues its existence since 1870 for five generations. Although mentorship is delivered from father to sun, the only thing everlasting is the mill itself. Hikmet Sözen on turning lathe, started working when he was 13 years old. His great grand father, Mr. İsmail was the founder of the profession. Then his grandfather and his father have taken over the profession. In the past a big furnace and bellow were in the shop "We heated the iron in the furnace and pummeled the robust in the anvil" states Sözen. Then the fine works of the mills were done with file and shaped. But now, machine of the mill is prepared in lathe. Then the yellow part at the out is assembled after threads are prepared by file. The work requires attention and patience although not that much troublesome as the past. For this reason father and son, together can only produce 10 mills.
