G K Engineering Company

Finding us can be a bit of a chore if you aren't used to the layout of Lane No. 4- I. The address says Plot No. 1016/342, but even the delivery drivers sometimes get turned around near the Anand Lane area. G K Engineering Company is a small place, really. We have some lathes and some old milling machines that have been with us since the start. They are reliable, even if they look a bit rough around the edges. There is usually a layer of metal shavings on the floor by noon, and the smell of cutting oil is everywhere. It’s the kind of smell that stays on your clothes even after you go home. My hands are usually stained with grease, and it takes a lot of scrubbing to get them clean. We do a lot of small parts for other businesses around here. Sometimes someone comes in with a broken piece of machinery and asks if we can replicate it, so we spend the afternoon measuring and cutting. It’s quiet work in a way, just focusing on the metal. We don’t have a website or anything like that, just the sign over the door that’s starting to fade. The office is just a desk in the corner with a lot of paper files piled up. It’s a bit messy, but we know where everything is. We just keep our heads down and get the orders out as fast as the old machines allow us. It's a long day in Lane No. 4- I.
