John Peterson has been making reproductions of tin and other period sheet metal wares for nearly thirty years. He employs techniques, tools and machines that were in use during the nineteenth century. He works in high quality tinplate as well as brass, copper and sheet steel. Although it is not a full-time business, he has reproduced wares for museums, collectors and living historians when his busy schedule allows. |

MR. SATURDAY NIGHT! Incontrovertible photographic and documentary evidence that the 19th century tinman was the original "life of the party": Oooooh look!!! He's soldering!!!!!
... it was many a 'prentice to the tinman's trade who looked forward longingly to the day when he, with sharpened snips and heated iron in hand, would be the center of attention from many of the village's prettiest girls ...
Tinman also available for birthdays, weddings and bar mitzvahs ... |

*I HATE FAIR POINT!!!!!! In January 09 Verizon transferred its DSL landline system in northern New England to Fair Point. Well - for a lot of us here in the northeast this has been a nightmare!!!! For the time being Fair Point is still my isp at home. Their delivery of email has been sporadic and undependable. I opened up a domain email account (...@ottertin.com) but Fair Point still does not receive or deliver email from/to that account consistently. If you should email me it is possible that Fair Point has lost it somewhere in the ethernet and I have not seen it. If I sent you an email it is possible that Fair Point did not deliver it. I am very sorry for this inconvenience but we can chalk it up to the incompetence of Fair Point.
I HATE FAIR POINT!!!
