Mechvil'S Furniture

Our place is W-617 in Anna Nagar West Extension. It is a quiet enough corner compared to the main parts of the city. We do furniture work here, so the ground is usually covered in sawdust by noon. We try to sweep up, but it is a losing battle until the end of the day. The shop is not a showroom; it is where we actually build and fix things. You will see planks of wood leaning against the walls and tools scattered across the benches. We have been in this spot for a while, and the locals know they can find us here if they need something mended. I like the smell of the wood, though the varnish can be a bit strong sometimes. We do not have a big marketing team or anything like that. People just hear about us from their neighbors. We have an old dog that sleeps under the main table; he does not mind the noise at all. Most of our tools are older than I am, but they still work better than the new plastic stuff you see in stores nowadays. We work mostly during the daylight hours because the lighting inside is not the best for fine work. It is a lot of standing and bending over, so we are usually pretty tired by the evening. It is honest work, and we like being part of the Anna Nagar community.
