R.D.S. Engineering Works

Our workshop is located at the 5 Acre Kothari Wear House, specifically unit No. 2/B-1 on Tikujiniwadi Road. This is up in the Chitalsar-Manpada area. It’s a big industrial-feeling space, which is exactly what R.D.S. Engineering Works needs for the kind of stuff we do. There’s usually a lot of metal lying around and the sound of machines running. The warehouse has high ceilings and it gets quite loud when everyone is working at once. It’s not the cleanest place in the world, what with the oil and metal shavings, but that’s the nature of engineering. Tikujiniwadi Road can get quite congested with all the trucks moving in and out of the different warehouses. We’ve grown used to the rumble of heavy engines nearby. Inside our unit, we have various lathes and tools that have been with us for years. They aren't new, but they do the job. The air smells like grease and cold steel most mornings. We don't have a fancy office, just a small corner with a desk where we handle the orders and drawings. People who come to see us usually have grease on their hands too. It’s a hard-working part of town. We just focus on getting the parts right and making sure the machines are kept in decent enough shape to keep running. It's a lot of noise and sweat but we get through the daily list of jobs we have to finish before we head home for the evening.
