P. S. Gajjar Engineers & Pattern Makers

The shop at 1706/1 in Phase -Iii of the Vatva G.I.D.C. is where we spend most of our waking hours. It’s not the quietest place in the world, especially with all the activity happening around us in the industrial estate. P. S. Gajjar Engineers & Pattern Makers is really just a group of us who know our way around a workshop. We deal with patterns mostly, which means there is always wood dust or metal shavings on the floor, no matter how much we sweep up at the end of the day. The sun hits the metal roof in the afternoons and it gets pretty warm inside, but we’re used to it by now. We don't have a fancy front desk or a marketing team. If you come by, you’ll likely see us hunched over a workbench or checking a measurement for the third time. It’s practical work. We’ve been at this address for a good while, and the neighbors in the other units know us as the guys who are always tinkering with something. We don’t spend much time on the computer unless we have to. Most of the real thinking happens with a pencil behind the ear or a tool in hand. It’s a bit gritty and the grease gets under your fingernails, but that is just the nature of engineering and pattern making. We just show up, do the work, and go home.
