Sara Dahmen - coppersmith (I don't really belong here) & author

First, I am not a screenwriter, nor an actor, or anything else that qualifies as part of the filmmaking world, normally. I am a coppersmith who makes vintage reproductions or modern copperware (and tinware, etc etc) in my garage shop. (and if you know any other women who are making copper cookware PLEASE send them to me because this is kinda lonely to be the only one around...)

The world of filmmaking is first and foremost on my radar because I offer handcrafted props and advice to make sure the pieces are indeed period correct for your work! It's FUN!!!!!!

And because I'm an author of historical novels (...and let's be real, novels live further when on the screen), I'm also dipping a toe in Stage32 just to see what all goes into this piece of the puzzle. It's been a fascinating ride so far and I've met wonderful people.

Hello to everyone!

Hey Sarah!! I also like to hammer some old copper from churches roofs to make masks . I like to write historic subjects, such as Middle Age or Neolithic, but also some contemporary and legend-fiction-science. Cheers!

You definitely love to make more artistic pieces than me, Florica Cimpoies :) I'm more...functional beauty. If you can cook or eat in it, I probably can make it. :) And many times it's authentic reproductions using 200 year old tools. :) Keep up the amazing copper work!!

Florica Cimpoies

Hey Sara , sorry I missed up our conversation! yes I love to make small intricate pieces but also some bigger ones. I would like to see some of yours. Maybe one day we can create something together. That could be awesome .
