Hire the Best Mechanical Designers in Ohio

Manufacturing engineer focused on turning prototypes into buildable products. I diagnose fit, tolerance, assembly, and fabrication problems before production. Typical work includes correcting drawings, restructuring assemblies, fastener consolidation, sheet-metal readiness, and supplier-ready documentation. Engaged when a design is failing, unclear, or not manufacturable. Deliverables: production drawings, BOM structure, revision control logic, and DFM changes that reduce scrap and rework. Tools: SolidWorks, AutoCAD, STEP-based workflows across mixed CAD environments.

I help startups, manufacturers, and product teams turn ideas, sketches, redlines, and legacy drawings into production-ready mechanical design and technical documentation. I specialize in SolidWorks CAD, 3D modeling, 2D manufacturing drawings, reverse engineering, tooling and fixture design, product development, Design for Manufacturing (DFM), and 3D printables. If you need a part designed from scratch, an assembly updated, a drawing package cleaned up, or a concept prepared for machining, fabrication, casting, or 3D printing, I can help. My background includes mechanical engineering and design support work on GE aerospace programs, R&D and equipment development at Beehive Industries, and tool design/manufacturing engineering for custom fixtures, mandrels, dies, machine updates, and industrial products. I design with manufacturability in mind, not just appearance on a screen. I can support: • Mechanical design • SolidWorks CAD modeling • 3D part and assembly design • 2D technical and manufacturing drawings • Reverse engineering • Fixture and tooling design • Design revisions and legacy drawing updates • DFM / manufacturability improvement • Prototype and production support Software experience includes SolidWorks, Fusion360, Siemens NX, Inventor, and AutoCAD. If you need fast, expert CAD work and mechanical design help that is practical, clear, and ready for the real world, send me your sketch, file, drawing, or idea and I’ll help you move it forward.

I have been working for the past 20 years as a Mechanical Design Engineer for several companies which has exposed me to many different products and manufacturing processes. For the past 10 years, I have also been performing consulting work for select companies as needed to meet their demands and schedules. I have experience designing everything from consumer products, to military equipment, to industrial equipment. During my experience, I have designed parts involving all different manufacturing processes, including injection molding, machining, fiberglass, extrusions, stampings, and formed sheet metal. I have taken ideas from concept, through prototyping and testing, and all of the way into full production. I have experience working directly with suppliers to understand their requirements and to develop the best products. I am also a Certified SolidWorks Professional, so you can be assured that my SolidWorks CAD skills are very strong. I will be able to work through your projects quickly and reliably.

I am an experienced digital designer with a wide range of skills in my freelance services. I worked in a custom car shop for three years, where I created branding and websites. I have recently updated my website design skills with responsive and mobile-friendly talents. I have taken courses in HTML5 and CSS3 along with PHP and Javascript. I have refreshed my skills with branding and logo design by researching the latest trends and design presentations. I also have made sure I have the latest software to make the necessary adjustments to digital assets. I received a degree in Mechanical Engineering and worked in the theme park industry for seven years. I was a lead mechanical engineer for most icon rides like King Kong and Super Nintendo Land.
