Ramdev Metal Works

Down in Bhayander East at number 5, you will find our metal works shop. It is a noisy place, honestly. Between the cutting machines and the sound of hammers hitting steel, you can barely hear yourself think during the peak hours. We have been working with metal here for quite a long time. The floor is usually covered in scrap bits and iron filings, no matter how much we try to keep it clean. It is just the nature of the work we do. We take on all sorts of small jobs for people around here, from fixing a gate to cutting sheets for a bigger project. It gets hot inside, especially in the afternoons when the sun hits the roof. We usually have a fan going, but it mostly just moves the warm air around. The neighbors know us by the sound of the grinder. There are racks of pipes and flat bars leaning against the walls. It is a practical space, not meant for showing off. We use old machines that have been around for years because they still get the job done right. Sometimes a customer comes in with a rough drawing on a piece of cardboard, and we figure out how to make it. It is steady work. We just keep our heads down and handle the metal as it comes in. We end the day covered in soot and dust, but that’s fine with us here.
