J. K. Engineering Works

Running a shop like J. K. Engineering Works at 114/1/2, General Block, Midc, Bhosari isn't exactly a quiet life. The Bhosari area is always buzzing with the sound of hammers and heavy machinery, and our unit is right in the middle of all that action. We spend most of our time in greasy overalls, making sure the parts we are working on match the drawings we have been given. It’s not the kind of place where you would want to wear a nice suit, that is for sure. The walls at our place could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but we would rather spend that money on keeping the tools sharp and the machines oiled. We have got a couple of old fans that rattle when they are on high, but they keep the air moving during those hot Pune summers. Most of the guys here have been working together so long they don't even need to ask who is doing what next. We just get on with it. When the lunch bell rings, we sit around the small table near the entrance and talk about cricket or whatever else is going on in the neighborhood. It is a simple setup at our corner of the General Block, but it works for us. We don’t have a website that looks like a movie or anything; we just focus on the metal in front of us. If you are walking through the MIDC, you can hear our workshop from the road.
