Roadside "Ironing Wallah" who uses an Antique Coal Iron to Iron Clothes at his Shop, Bardoli, India.

✓ Just when we think that we've seen everything that there is to see in life, we come across "Astri Walla" (Ironing Master) Pankaj Bhai who despite not having any electricity at his roadside shop, still manages to offer a first class ironing service by way of using a charcoal powered iron; the iron is a throwback to the olden days when electricity was non existent or a rare commodity.
Pankaj Bhai also shares his great tip on how to aid the removal of creases; which is to spray a generous amount of water before ironing.
Pankaj Bhai also shows us the sequence in which to Iron a Shirt:
* Collar first
* Arms second
* Thirdly the back
* Forthly the front
* Fifth, the ironed piece of clothing is folded and given a final touch up with the iron.

[@karamfaiz1324]

I have one at home here we dont use it..it belongs to the person who looked after my mum and when she gave it to my mum she said never give it to anyone and just keep it.. So we still have it.. Its in good condition.. Not ThAT good but its still really nice.. Probably becuz we havent used it in years

[@user-iz6mg5su1m]

I am shoked with iron!they use it still!!!

[@thematurestudent56]

That iron is a must have! What a ingenious idea. Think of the money we would all save if we adopted this way of doing the ironing! Another great video 👍

[@mr07623445678]

👍🏼 🙏🏽

[@SpaceEag11]

Yeah and its very heavy too. No need to lean in on it to add some weight. The only thing is it lacks a thermostat..so its a delicate balance between ironing and burning the cloth lol..

[@BertyBertsson]

You would either burn the cloth or an ember or a piece of coal would dirty the cloth. It looks very inconvenient. I'm happy with my Philips Azur Elite. It's also heavy but it's modern and works without an hassle, unlike this one. But it's a cool iron never the less. I like the steampunk aesthetic.

[@iresineherb7]

acting like a anti-boomer huh@@BertyBertsson
