Kishan Die & Polishing Centre

We are located at 8 Gill, right near the Bank of Baroda. If you see the bank, you are basically there. The shop is mostly filled with the sound of polishing wheels spinning. It creates a lot of dust, so we try to sweep up as much as we can every evening, but it is a losing battle. Kishan started this place because he knew how to handle metal dies, and we have been doing the same thing since. The air smells a bit like metal and polishing wax all the time. Sometimes the power goes out in this part of town and we just sit outside on the steps until it comes back on. It is a small space and we have to stack the finished dies in the corner to keep the walkway clear. We do not have a website or anything like that, most people just know we are here. The light inside is a bit dim, but we have some strong lamps over the workbenches so we can see what we are doing. It is tough work on the hands and they stay black from the grit no matter how much soap you use. We take our lunch breaks together and usually just get something from the vendors passing by. It is just a simple polishing centre where we focus on the task in front of us without any fuss or fancy talk.
