Down in Andheri East, you will find us at Gala No 17 in the B Wing of the Giriraj In building. It is a busy industrial estate, and there is always a truck or a tempo trying to squeeze through the narrow lanes. Mechano Works is basically a place where things get made and repaired. The floor is concrete and usually has some oil stains on it that never quite come out no matter how much we scrub. We have a few machines that have been with us since we started, and they still run better than the new ones sometimes. My hands are rarely clean, but that is part of the job. We get a lot of walk-in work from the other units in the building. Sometimes a guy will come in needing a quick weld or a part turned on the lathe, and we try to squeeze him in between the bigger orders. It gets loud in here when everyone is working at once. We usually have the radio playing in the background, but you can barely hear it over the grinders. In the monsoon, the rain hits the metal roof so hard we have to shout to be heard. We don't do much talking anyway, we just get on with the tasks. It is not a glamorous place, but we have been here a long time and we know our way around the machinery pretty well.
