Lovely article.

Though, the most common thing you  hear would be  ´Aygaz. dit dit dit´ from the pick ups, sound of ´bozaci´ would be very nice to hear.

hurdacı specializes in metal and iron I guess. That is why AlphaF said elderly ladies should watch out.

"Hurda" is any old commodity that can no longer be used for the original purpose it was produced (heavy damage, missing vital parts etc.)

"eski" is simply "old". An eski pair of shoes can still be worn while working in the garden.
