As some of you might know, I just took a trip to Ghana, Africa.

Spent some time looking for metalworking machinery and services and
basically found that unless you are in the city, the metalworking they do is
limited to cutting brake rotors, banging out vehicle fenders, etc.

Woodworking, however is widespread and VERY impressive. Everything from
simple bowls to custom artwork-related coffins. On my next trip, I'll try
to get better photos of some of the intricate detail work they do.

Quite a trip. Here are some photos... None of which are really
woodworking-related except for maybe the construction.
