The sieve pulley production, which has been going on for years in the Mustafakemalpaşa District of Bursa, is being performed by a few masters in recent days. While the number of pulley producers in the district was around 200 in 1945 and the 50s, this number has dropped to 10 today. While the sieve pulley made of beech wood due to its flexibility is still standing despite the developing technology, the manufacturing plants are decreasing rapidly due to the new generation's lack of interest in the profession. The manufacturers, who have given their efforts and years to the pulley production profession, which they learned from their grandfathers, suffer from the indifference of the young generation to the profession. One of the handicrafts that are about to be finished because no apprentice is available The sieve pulley, drum making, all kinds of percussion reeds and floor tables, in addition to being used in agriculture, kitchen and handicrafts, it also finds shape as cylindrical and oval material in the furniture sector. Pulleys made of beech trees growing in high parts of forests cause the demand for pulleys to decrease as the technology develops rapidly and deactivates the human power.

It was prepared from the photos of my works in 2013-2014. Kasnak documentary presentation won the Sami Güner Cup 2nd stage in 2015.
