Summary

The exact design and technical details are confidential and will only be shared after an NDA is signed. Required Experience - Strong experience with SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or Autodesk Inventor - Experience designing small multi-part mechanical assemblies - Understanding of interlocking components, fits, clearances, and tolerances - Experience with plastic product design and/or injection-molded parts is highly preferred - Ability to create a 3D mechanical design from a detailed 2D sketch and verbal/written instructions Please do not apply if your primary experience is only in Blender, Maya, SketchUp, architectural CAD, graphic design, or visual product mockups. Scope of Work The selected designer will: - Convert my sketches into individual 3D components - Assemble the components into a functional mechanical assembly - Help determine reasonable dimensions/clearances where necessary - Create a cross-sectional view showing the internal mechanism - Create an exploded-view assembly - Make minor revisions based on my feedback This is an initial proof-of-concept CAD project, not final production tooling or mold design. Deliverables - Complete 3D CAD assembly - Individual CAD parts - Exploded-view assembly - Cross-sectional/internal views - Basic dimensioned 2D technical drawings - STEP/STP files - Editable/native CAD source files - SolidWorks: ".SLDPRT" / ".SLDASM", or equivalent native files if another approved CAD program is used - High-quality rendered images of the assembled product - 1–2 reasonable revision rounds Confidentiality The product is an original invention. The selected freelancer must agree to and sign an NDA/confidentiality agreement before receiving any detailed technical sketches or information. The freelancer may not publish, display, share, or use the project in a portfolio without my written permission. Budget Fixed price: $150 Please confirm in your proposal that you can complete the above initial CAD package within this budget. When Applying Please answer these questions: 1. Which CAD software will you use? 2. Have you designed small multi-part mechanical products before? 3. Do you have experience with plastic or injection-molded components? 4.
