Production-ready mechanical design, on demand.
Fifteen years designing mechanical systems — sheet metal, composites, fixtures, and the CAD automation that keeps drawings moving. I help fabrication shops and product teams get from concept to a complete, buildable package without adding headcount.
Capabilities
Old prints into working CAD
Plants running 60-year-old equipment often have exactly one copy of the drawing that keeps it alive — a faded blueline or a torn vellum in a flat file. I rebuild deteriorating legacy prints into accurate 3D models and fresh, revision-controlled drawings, so you can quote parts, plan maintenance, and stop worrying about the day the original becomes unreadable. Working from scans, photos, and field measurements of the part itself where the print falls short.
Design for manufacture
Sheet metal and composite parts designed around your equipment, materials, and processes — bend allowances, layup schedules, and tolerances your floor can actually hold.
CAD automation
SolidWorks macros and Python scripting that eliminate repetitive CAD work: batch drawing exports, flat-pattern checks, parametric part families driven from a spreadsheet.
Fixtures & tooling
Weld fixtures, assembly jigs, layup mandrels, and inspection aids designed to shorten setup time and make good parts repeatable.
Build packages
Complete, revision-controlled documentation — dimensioned drawings, flat patterns, BOMs, and STEP/DXF exports ready for quoting and the shop floor.
How an engagement works
Scope call
A short call to understand the part, the process, and the constraints. No charge, no obligation.
Fixed quote
You get a written scope with deliverables, timeline, and a fixed price. Hourly available for open-ended or on-call work.
Delivery
Native CAD files, STEP/DXF exports, and PDF drawings — everything your shop or your next designer needs, with no lock-in.
