I am Abel, a Mechanical Engineer with experience in the pre-engineered steel structures industry as a Research & Development (R&D) Engineer, where I design warehouses, mezzanines, stages, and racking systems while ensuring they are manufacturable, cost-effective, and easy to assemble and install. I also collaborate with production teams throughout the manufacturing and installation phases to ensure designs meet project requirements, taking products from concept to production. I have also designed machinery, including dewatering screw press machines, sand mixer machines, manual forklifts, miniature arbor presses, EcoStoves, boom gates, potato dryer machines, and car washing machines. As a freelance Mechanical CAD Designer, I have completed projects involving 3D-printable products, electronic enclosures, automotive components, reverse engineering from drawings and reference images, and product designs prepared for manufacturing and mass production. My expertise includes: •Mechanical Product Design •Machine Design •Steel Structure Design •Design for 3D Printing •Sheet Metal Design •3D CAD Modeling •PCB Enclosures •Design for Manufacturing (DFM) •Technical & Manufacturing Drawings Software Expertise: •SOLIDWORKS •Autodesk Inventor •CATIA •ANSYS •SAP2000 •Idea Statica •AutoCAD

Are you looking for a mechanical designer who can take your idea, sketch, or existing part and turn it into a manufacturing-ready design? You’re in the right place. I specialize in sheet-metal parts, laser/CNC-cut components, machine-design assemblies, 3D-printable prototypes, and structural frames engineered for real production — not just for display. Every model, drawing, and DXF I deliver is built with manufacturability, accuracy, and minimal rework in mind. Whether you need a new enclosure designed, a machine part recreated, or a prototype prepared for 3D printing, you’ll get quick delivery, easy communication, and files that are fully ready for production. ✅ What I Deliver 💠Manufacturing-ready sheet-metal components & assemblies 💠DXF files optimized for laser/CNC cutting 💠Reverse engineering from samples, photos, or measurements 💠SolidWorks 3D modeling + assemblies 💠Prototypes prepared for 3D printing 💠Enclosures, frames, brackets, fixtures, and small mechanical parts 💠Clear 2D production drawings with proper tolerances Every file is delivered clean, editable, and organized for immediate use in fabrication. ✅ Why Clients Choose Me 🔹 I design with real manufacturing constraints in mind 🔹 Parts are optimized to reduce cost, weight, and complexity 🔹 I confirm details early → almost no back-and-forth 🔹 Fast delivery without sacrificing precision 🔹 2D and 3D files are ready for your machinist, fabricator, or 3D-printing shop 🧰 Software I Use ◉ SolidWorks (primary) ◉ Fusion 360 (if required) ◉ Catia ◉ CorelDRAW ⚙️ Let’s Build It If you need a reliable mechanical designer who understands fabrication, cutting processes, and sheet-metal behavior, I’m ready to help. Send me a message and we’ll get your part designed the right way from the start.

Whether you are an entrepreneur developing a prototype or a firm needing to offload complex CAD engineering, I provide high-fidelity 3D modeling and precision 2D drafting. 1. 3D Mechanical Modeling & Design Creating complex parts and large-scale assemblies using top-down or bottom-up design methodologies. Parametric modeling that allows for quick iterations and design changes. 2. Product Design & Prototyping Transforming 2D sketches or PDF drawings into fully realized 3D models. Designing for 3D Printing (Additive), Injection Molding, and CNC Machining. 3. Sheet Metal & Weldment Design Creating flat patterns for laser cutting and bending. Generating structural weldment cut lists and frames. 4. Professional 2D Technical Drawings GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) application. Detailed manufacturing blueprints, exploded views, and Bill of Materials (BOM). 5. Photorealistic Rendering & Visualization Using SOLIDWORKS Visualize to create high-quality marketing images of your product before it’s even built. Being a Certified Professional means I have been vetted by Dassault Systèmes for speed, accuracy, and advanced problem-solving within the software. My 4 years of experience ensure that: Models are stable: No "broken" features or messy assembly mates. Designs are manufacturable: I account for tolerances and material properties. Communication is seamless: I speak the language of engineers and manufacturers. I am also here to offer my services as a creative and detail-oriented Graphic Designer specializing in high-impact visual communication. With a proven track record of using Canva to bridge the gap between complex ideas and stunning visuals, I help brands build a cohesive and professional identity across all platforms. My design philosophy focuses on "clarity through creativity." I don’t just create layouts; I build visual experiences that resonate with target audiences and drive engagement. Whether you need polished corporate documentation or vibrant social media assets, I deliver professional-grade results with efficiency. My Core Design Competencies Include: Brand Identity & Collateral: Crafting cohesive brand kits, including logos, business cards, letterheads, and corporate stationery that align with your unique voice. Marketing & Social Media: Designing high-engagement templates for Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook, as well as digital ad banners and email headers. Professional Documentation: Transforming raw data into aesthetic and readable company profiles, pitch decks, annual reports, and brochures. Print & Industrial Design: Creating high-quality print-ready assets such as posters, flyers, and technical signage that maintain crisp resolution from screen to physical media. Multimedia Integration: Leveraging Canva’s advanced features to incorporate motion graphics, video elements, and interactive QR codes into digital assets. I am adept at working within established brand guidelines while finding innovative ways to elevate a brand's aesthetic. My goal is to provide you with versatile, high-quality designs that not only look professional but also serve your strategic business objectives.
