How Artisans Make One Of Pakistan's Favorite Board Games | Insider Art
This compass-like tool is called a compass, for any interested journalists...
🤣🤣🔥🔥
😅😅😅😅😅
Ok I am from India, and this is the first time I am seeing striker like this. We usually have slightly bigger size discs as striker not the hollow ring type, but still it's cool to see traditional south asian games getting their due attentions...♥️
I am from maldives,and we does not have the ring thing
@@arshah7335 im a pakistani and ive never seen the disc befor either
By the rules of the game, the striker cannot be that big. It's maximum diameter can be equal to the width of a pocket, and no more. Otherwise there will be no fouls and fines.
In India we use a smaller striker, but ring is preferred in Pakistan. Literally it's one board, and you can play it 4-5 different rules. Coloured Points based Ring Both side trying not to hit a particular colour. Etc etc😊
i discovered carrom on youtube a few years ago. completely by accident. as a snooker player, this game appealed to me. i watch it every now and again.
UFF FINALLY THE GAME GETS THE DESERVED ATTENTION! ✨✨✨
Amazing work 🙏 Fresh video share ☺️
A wonderful tradition! The hardworking craftsmen are masters at painting the boards! The owner who was wearing a mask should also provide masks for his workers to protect their lungs from harmful airborne wood particules.
Played the game whilst I was in Bangladesh I got addicted to it it’s fun and very social vibe
does anything make it more social than pool?
As a Bangladeshi, I never knew Pakistan can make so many things that are so essential to the world. Love to see Bangladesh,India and Pakistan do make really some incredible stuffs.
I am from Sialkot but living in Lahore i had one from last 18 years and it still good 😊
I’m from Andhra Pradesh in south India and here we are obsessed with carroms . I remember every time we went to our grandma’s place we all would play together and we had so much fun
Here , in north tooo! It’s very famous pastimes of kids to play with carrom. And whenever i used to go to my grand mother house me and my brother also used to play their for whole day!
Wonder what brand of paintbrushes they use?
SOOO COOOLLLLL
Finally something highlighted from my country!
Very pretty 😀
It's a very fun game. I played it first in Fiji
We have carrom board in our home. My brother is really good at it but I sucks 🤧
I've never seen a striker like that before. Strikers are only slightly wider and not hollow.
Paying $5 for a handmade piece is at least offensive. They're beautiful!
hand painted ones are $50
Do afghani fighter kites "gudiparan" next
I looked it up on KZhead and it looks like a really fun activity. Cheers from Mexico 🇲🇽!
Which city or village in Pakistan these people from?
If they use oil paint, don't they have to wait months and months for them to dry?
that doesn't look like oil paint, and if it was oil paint, it could dry with a drying agent in a few days or weeks enough to be varnished over. it would howeverbe more humpy than some other paint types, such as water colour. it looks like highly concentrated water colour to me.
@@Ass_of_Amalek that's what I was thinking too. A really pigmented watercolor. Can you suggest a medium that speeds up drying? I've stopped taking oil point commissions altogether because they just take too damn long to dry.
@@ShilasSpellboundCreations the usual siccatives that work well are based on toxic heavy metals. it used to be lead, nowadays it's cobalt and such. I have only used a bit of oil paints and oil varnishes (for violin making), the stuff I'm used to is kremer's siccative no 203, but you can probably get equivalent siccatives from other manufcturers. it certainly speeds up drying a lot. you could also get a UV lamp, but I suspect that's better for oil varnishes than it is for oil painting, because with paintings you may have rather thick layers that UV light might cause the surface to dry too quickly on. an interesting thing I have experimented a little with is mastic dissolved in turpentine - it combines with linseed oil as a varnish (forming a traditional paint-glazing medium called megilp) like other resins only do when melted and boiled into linseed oil, and is supposed to and does seem to speed drying somewhat. but it's certainly not as fast as modern siccatives, and it's gone out of fashion because it yellows with age (though mastic-turpentine alone still is a standard varnish for oil paintings because it can be washed off with solvents and replaced in the future without harming the paint).
@@Ass_of_Amalek I notice my paint itself doesn't seem to take very long to dry, but my varnish does! I was just using the damar varnish, so maybe I should just look into a different varnish or pull out my UV lamp in the future. Thanks for all that information!
That big striker is not made for Original carrom board with small striker is the real play.
Carrom was invented in India !✌️❣️
These games were highly played in india ....Infact its developed in india itself... Nowadays the trend is reduced.... . People play chess....and online games... Ludo
