Although I registered in 2007, I have only been active on this site for 4 months. I began working in the machining trades in 1981 as a machine operator. In 1986 I attended community college and became a machinist. Then was employed in injection mold making and metal stamping die businesses. Working closely with engineers, assisting in the design, building and repair of plastic injection molds, together with the construction of simple and progressive metal stamping dies. Beginning with manual machines, eventually the job duties entailed programming CNC machinery. At first entering programs manually machine-side then remotely as CAD software became more common. In 1995 an employer encouraged me to return to community college. Where I "tested" successfully for an AS in machine tool technology, Which together with my previous work experience I also obtained certification as a tool and die/mold maker.. In 2008 while employed for a local aerospace manufacturer (whose product lines are components for commercial and military turbine "jet" engines). I was diagnosed with a neurological disorder and unable to continue to work in a machine shop environment. Since becoming disabled, I have been self employed as a CAD designer/drafter.

I'm a former tool and die maker with over 25 yrs experience,and still have my precision measuring instruments. For the last 20+ yrs.working in that capacity, I often programmed CNC machines, and produced mechanical drawings using various CAD software. I was forced to "retire" 7 years ago due to neurological disease. Since becoming disabled, I have been self employed as a CAD drafter/designer. My experience ranges from simple tasks like floor plans and electric motor mounts.To more complex drawings such as injection molds and industrial robotics. Projects completed from online sources include: home woodworking jigsaw patterns, a sheet metal design with multiple flat parts that when assembled created a cylinder, a parking lot design for boats/trailers with tow vehicles, and RVs located under a freeway overpass, 2d mechanical blueprints, STL files for CNC router programing, architectural structural frame designs, and an attachment for added stability to a beach umbrella. Recently completed projects include; designing protective covers for cell phones, stamped brass parts designed from hand drawn sketches on fast-food napkins , a bicycle helmet designed like a pith helmet, routed from wood, and fixed blade knife designs. This is not a complete list, only a representation of freelance assignments I have completed. And includes contracts from other freelance web sites as well as privately acquired work. Software being utilized includes SolidEdge, AutoCAD 2015, AutoCAD 2015 Raster Design, 3DSom PhotoModeler, SolidWorks , Rhinoceros 3D, Sketchup Pro., Esprit Cam, NX CAD/CAM/CAE. With Chief Architect for architectural design. As well as Adobe and Microsoft suites I can provide drawings in most any of the formats (DWG, DXF, PDF,STEP, IGES, ect.) commonly used for drafting/design and prototyping. My software is compatible with other files from professional CAD programs (SolidWorks, Catia, Pro-E, AutoCad, ect.)
