This is pretty common in Kashmir—people see copper utensils as both an investment and a status symbol. We’ve got massive samovars and other seriously heavy stuff, and it’s not cheap—this stuff can cost thousands of rupees. If you serve someone on a steel plate here, they might take it as an insult.

The process of tinning copper utensils is called Kalai in Kashmiri. Honestly, this guy is being pretty careful compared to some. There are workers who straight-up wash copper with concentrated sodium hydroxide and breathe in the fumes like it’s no big deal.

 

But why tin it?

 

To protect them from corrosion. Copper develops a toxic layer of salts if exposed to atmosphere or acidic substances. Tin is s lot less reactive and hence safe.

It might be close to real time. I’ve seen it done on automotive parts and it’s pretty damn quick

Pretty slick.

It is slick on the bottom, and without dividers everything’s gonna be a jumbled mess. 
 

Reminds me of “Baptist bars” in ETX homes. Essentially a big lazy Susan in a main cabinet in the kitchen or den. In the front is syrup, or pots and pans, or something else so you don’t need to fear your neighbors or pastors poking around when they come over for small group. But once they leave, flip it around and there’s the hooch.

Getting the ham and cheese omelette MRE told you the rest of your day was gonna suck.

And the next day because you'd be shitting your guts out while your platoon was kicking the porta shitter while your ass screamed.

The shame was real.

Florida played a home series with Air Force earlier this month, and the USAF Wings of Blue paratrooper team jumped to the field pre-game.  Apparently no IBS was triggered, Florida won 7-0.
