Laxmi Metal Products

Down here at Pots-Mahalingpur, things move at their own pace. Our place, Laxmi Metal Products, is situated right on the Raichur Nippani Road. It is a busy stretch of tarmac in the Mudhol Taluk. Being in the Bagalkot district means we deal with a lot of local folks and people just passing through on the way to the next town. We spend most of our time out in the back area where the actual work happens. It is hot and the metal gets heavy, but that is just how it is. We have been at this spot for quite some time now. You cannot miss us if you are driving down the main road. Just look for the gate where all the trucks pull in. We do not have a big front desk or anyone in a suit waiting to greet you. Usually, someone will just look up from what they are doing and come over to help. The shop floor is always covered in scraps and the smell of grease. It is honest work. We do not make a big or fancy fuss about things. If someone needs something made or fixed, we look at it and tell them if we can do it. Most of the time, we can. The sun gets strong in the afternoon, so we usually take a short break then. Otherwise, it is just the sound of hammers and the road outside.
