About
I am a 30 year old time served tooling engineer who currently works for a large aerospace company, looking to take on some freelance CAD work.
I have 12 years experience in both 2D drafting and 3D modelling across numerous CAD packages, over a vast variety of jobs ranging from house extensions, architectural metalwork, structural steelwork through to complex mechanical and electrical systems, jig tool, fixture design and work holding.
I feel i have the ability to offer the complete package.
