Lorraine the tin hat maker
![]()
What do you do with your old beer cans? Lorraine at Calliope camp site makes wonderful tin hats out of them which she sells at Rockhampton market for $20 a go. They are fascinating and intricate. It involves cutting the beer can into a template, piercing the edge with a hot punch, stringing 40 ring pulls a hat and adding felt to the inside so protect delicate heads. Surely its the ultimate in recyling! I keep mine proudly in the kitchen at home!
