I can capable of both 2D and 3D design work in industrial design employing a number of tools. For 3D work, I prefer using Autodesk Inventor but I have used a number of 3D design tools in the past. For 2D work, I have used Gimp to design and manipulate my sketches. Below is a recent example of my work…

In this project, I was working with an engineering that was looking to modify an existing Xerox laserjet printer to double the printing speed. To begin with, an accurate 3D model of the current chassis was needed. I created this by using numerous precise measurements. The color 3D rendering to the right was to be used for an animation to convey the printing process. |

In this sample, a deceptively complex 3D model was required for mold-making. Beyond the compound curves required for the organic shape of the handle, the ridges were a unique challenge for a primarily mechanical modeler. Still, I found Autodesk’s Inventor up to the challenge! |

Here was an example where I was given an existing collection of travel toothbrushes that had the features the designers wanted in a new model. I was asked to create the 3D model of the components and then merge each of the features they wanted -including reduced sizes, a click-lock mechanism, and revised geometry. |
