I am
because
I CAD
About me: I have been CADing for the past three years. I started in college at the University of Southern California. Here I would CAD parts for my classes and work. As I continued CADing I began to get into complicated lofts and surfacing techniques, smoothly blending complex curves into each other. I have since graduated from USC but my enjoyment of CADing has not stopped. I want to help you realize your design.
What I offer: I have my own copy of Solid Works and can make 3-D parts, in any major file format (like .iges, .stl, or .sldprt). I can also make 2D drawings of the part in .pdf format. I charge on a project based system with half of the money due up front. E-mail me with your requirements for a quote, Lane_DD@yahoo.com.
Why choose me: Through classes, work and side projects I have become proficient at doing everything to a simple block with a radius to complex fuselages and wings. My previous boss was really good at working with his hands and designing parts in his mind but did not know how to use the software to generate 3D parts. He gave me simple profiles with some dimensions and then I would take them and fill in the details to make 3D parts. From this I can transition an exact set of plans with dimensions into a part or you can give me a general idea and I can decide the dimensions myself.
And now
examples of my work:
Figure 1: This is a stator I made for my boss's turbofan.
Figure 2: A 737 I made in my Aircraft Design class, notice the wing to fuselauge fillets (only one in the class to do them).
Figure 3: The Silver Surfer is a plane I designed in the same class.
Figure 4: This is the seating diagram that goes along with the previous plane.
Figure 5: This is a wing a designed and built for Aero Design Team (ADT). Balsa ribs are shown in red, the balsa
sheating is shown in green, the shear web is shown in purple and the rear cap is shown in yellow.
Figure 6: A different version of the wing. I can quickly and easily change
different parts while keeping the majority of the piece.
Figure 7: An elliptical winglet I designed and made for ADT.
Figure 8: One of the many ducting pieces my old boss had me do. It smoothly transitions
from a round inlet
to a rectangular exit while shifting 2 inches to
the right.
Figure 9: This a male mold for the skin of a landing gear I did for my boss.
I first made the existing landing gear, then I added the exterior shown.
Figure 10: This is an Oblique All Wing I designed and built with two of my buddies.
2D Drawings
Figure 11: 2D drawings of the 737 shown in Figure 2.
Figure 12: 2D drawings of the plane from Figure 3.
Figure 13: A seating diagram for the airplane shown in previous.
I can help you turn your idea into a real part with great looking screenshots, easy to read drawings and commonly used CNC file types.
