About
I am a qualified Draughtsman with 17 years experience working mainly on the Sigmanest software in the Lasercutting Industry. I have experience using the Autodesk, AutoCad software as well as a basic understanding of the Inventor software in which I would like to expand my knowledge.
Prior to becoming a Draughtsman I was a Maintenance Electrician in a manufacturing environment for thirteen years. It was in this position that I was introduced to AutoCad as I was asked to document all of the electrical and mechanical drawings for the machines that were in the production plant.
I am now seeking to offer my services to businesses that would like to update or backup the drawings for their equipment. I can offer them 2D drawings in a PDF format which allow them to print the drawings as well in DWG format for them to save into an Archive.
