New Bastal Wood Crafts

You can find New Bastal Wood Crafts in Ward No.22 of Kondagaon. We are situated near the Odisha Road, which is a main route for a lot of travelers and trucks. Wood is just part of the life here. Our shop isn't anything fancy to look at from the outside. It’s a basic structure where we keep our tools and the timber we’re working on. The dust from the road sometimes blows in, so we are constantly dusting off the finished pieces. We work mostly with the types of wood found in this part of the state. It’s hard work and your back usually aches by the end of the shift. We don’t have a big team, just a few of us who know how to handle the chisels and the saws. Sometimes we talk a lot, other times it’s just the sound of the tools hitting the wood. The Odisha Road stays busy, so there’s always a backdrop of engine noises while we work. We don’t use any high-tech machinery; it’s mostly manual stuff that takes time. We take our lunch breaks under the shade of the trees nearby. It’s a quiet existence for the most part, just focusing on the wood and the orders we have to finish for the local folks. We've been here in Ward 22 for a good while and it suits us just fine.
