Balaji Metal Casting

Down here in the VKI Area, things are a bit rough around the edges. We are at F4 Manu Vihar, which is pretty easy to find once you get near Manu Vihar itself. Balaji Metal Casting is exactly what it sounds like. We do casting work. There’s usually a bit of smoke and a lot of heat when we are running. It’s not a place for clean clothes. Most of us end up with grease or dirt on our shirts by noon. It’s loud too. You can hear the machines from the road. We’ve got a small space but we use every inch of it. There are molds stacked up in the corner and metal pieces waiting to be moved. It’s hard work, and we don't try to hide that. We aren't trying to look like a big corporate office. We just have our tools and our workspace. Sometimes the truck drivers have a hard time backing into the spot, which usually leads to a bit of shouting and laughing. It’s just the way it goes here. The air is thick, and the sun hits the roof hard in the summer. We drink a lot of water and keep the fans going. It’s a local operation, run by people who know how to handle metal. We’ve been in this spot for a bit now and the neighbors are all doing similar work. We just show up, do the casting, and head home tired.
