Mahesh Mechanical Works

Our shop is out on Plot No. 349 in Phase-II of the G.I.D.C. in Chitra. It is a big industrial zone and we fit right in with the rest of the mechanical shops around here. Most of our work involves heavy tools and metal. You can usually hear the sound of grinders or hammers from the moment we open up in the morning. The air smells like burnt metal and grease. It is just the way a mechanical works should be. We have a lot of scrap pieces lying around in the yard. Sometimes we find a use for them, other times they just sit there. We spend a lot of time on our feet on the concrete floor. It can be tiring, but that is the job. Chitra is a busy area and there are trucks moving in and out of the plots all day long. We have a small office area boxed off in the corner, but mostly we are out on the floor. The walls are stained with oil marks from over the years. We don't bother painting them because they would just get dirty again. Our tools are old but they still work perfectly fine for what we need. We get a lot of dust from the road because it's so dry out here. We just wipe down the machines and keep working. It’s a straightforward business and we stay busy with whatever work comes through the gate.
