Guru Neon Signs

We've been at 251 Ammaleari Road for quite a bit now. Guru Neon Signs is what people call us, but mostly we’re just the guys bending glass in the back. It’s a messy place, to be honest. There’s wires on the floor and that distinct smell of gas when we’re working on a new tube. Some days the shop gets really bright when we test everything at once. You can see the glow from the street if the door is open. People walk by and peek in. It’s not a fancy office or anything like that. Just a workshop with high ceilings and a lot of dust on the shelves. We spend a lot of time looking at blueprints and trying to get the curves right on the letters. It takes patience, and sometimes things break, which is frustrating. My hands are usually stained or have small nicks from the tools. We drink a lot of tea here while waiting for things to cool down. If you come by, you’ll probably find us mid-project with a radio playing some local station in the background. It’s a good spot on Ammaleari Road, even if parking is a bit of a headache sometimes. We just keep at it, day after day, making things glow for whoever needs them. It’s simple work, really, just takes a lot of focus and keeping the glass from cracking under the heat. That's just how it goes here.
