Bastar Iron Craft The Evolution of Iron from a hunting tool to Utilities is a narrative best captured in the Iron craft of Bastar. Production Process: The process starts with scrap iron being repeatedly beaten when it is hot. It requires no casting and molding. The desired shape is given carefully by beating it at necessary spots. Then unnecessary portions are cut away and filed to remove sharp objects. On completion, a varnish coat is applied to enhance the luster. Both hollow and solid figures are made.
