Machines & Tools

Machines & Tools is a small shop at 4/7, Kalkaji Extn. We’ve been in this neighborhood for years, and most people around here know where to find us. It’s a compact space, so every corner is filled with something—wrenches, drill bits, or some piece of equipment we’re looking at. It isn't a polished showroom at all. It’s more of a place where you come when you need a specific tool and don’t want to deal with a big box store. The floors are a bit uneven and there’s usually some dust from the street coming in through the door. We spend a lot of time just sorting through stock and helping people figure out what they need for their own repairs. There’s no big marketing strategy here. We just open up in the morning, put the sign out, and start working. Sometimes we get busy and the shop gets crowded, and other times it’s just us drinking tea and waiting for the next person to walk in. We’ve got a lot of old catalogs and spare parts that have been sitting on the shelves for a decade. It’s just a regular local business trying to stay helpful. It’s not perfect, but it’s our shop and we like it that way. We keep it simple and focus on the stock we have on the shelves.
