Galaxy Furniture

If you are driving down the Main Sikar Road, you will probably see our place near Dher Ka Balaji. The road is always busy with trucks and cars kicking up dust, so we are constantly wiping down the tables and chairs we put out front. This isn’t a big showroom with bright lights. It’s a workshop where we actually build things from scratch. You can smell the wood polish and the glue from the street. I spend most of my day walking between the back where we cut the wood and the front where we show people what we’ve finished. Sometimes it gets a bit chaotic with wood shavings all over the floor, but that is just how a real furniture shop looks. We don't use any fancy computer programs to design things, we mostly just draw it out on a piece of scrap wood or paper and start cutting. The temple nearby brings a lot of people to this area on certain days, so it feels very much like a community spot. When a customer comes in, they usually talk to me or one of the guys actually holding a saw. We don’t have any salespeople in suits here. It’s just us making stuff that people can actually use in their houses for years. My hands are rough from the sanding, but that’s part of the job on Sikar Road.
