her children educated and got married with the limited
financial circumstances she had. She mentions about
the diffucult times she had ‘’ I kept cows, sold milk and
I never made my family depend on someone else‘’ We
notice the models on the shelves in the workshop.Umran
Köksal says that ‘‘He thought these shelves himself
and made them.’’
There are variety of wooden models on the shelves
with an astonishing order. Also, the workplace is very
clean. There is not a piece of sawdust on the floor.Ali
Köksal puts the sawdusts in copper cauldrons not to
make mess.
There are a lot of tools on the workshop’s walls. ’’I never
interfere those tools or else he can not find them.’’says
Umran Köksal. Then, she shows us the yoghurt pots
in the corner. He uses them to make patterns When
we first saw the strings prepared in different lengths
used as a compasses we could not understand their
purposes.He takes one of these strings designed by
him, a tool that resembles a screwdriver and a piece of
plywood.While we are thinking what he is going to do
with all these tools, his wife clarifies us that he wants to
show us how to use compasses.Just in a few minutes,
Ali Köksal gets a round piece from the square plywood.
His biggest dream is to make the model of Blue mosque
We ask Umran Köksal what kind of models her husband
enjoys making most. ‘’villas, houses and Anıtkabir.’’ she
replies. As we know that he had never seen Anıtkabir
before, we wonder how he can make the model of
something that he has never seen. Umran Köksal says
that ‘’we took him to Miniaturk. We got permission, so
he touched all the models there. He knows Anıtkabir
from there.
