CAD Designer Needed: Small Cast Iron Cauldron (3D STP + 2D Dimensioned Drawing)

Job Description I'm developing a small cast cauldron for a seasonal Halloween candle product. Melted wax will be poured directly into the cauldron itself (it's the candle vessel, not just a holder for a separate candle). I need a designer to turn my concept into manufacturing-ready files. What I need: - A 3D CAD model of a small cauldron shape, suitable for metal casting (cast iron) - Deliverables in .STP (STEP) format for the 3D model - A dimensioned 2D drawing in PDF format, suitable to send to a foundry for a manufacturing quote Design details: - Approximate size: [fill in — e.g., 3–4 inches tall, 3 inches diameter] - Style: traditional round cauldron shape with three short legs and a small looped handle on both sides - Intended use: candle wax will be poured directly into the cauldron (this is not a holder for a separate tealight. The cauldron itself is the vessel the wax cures in). Design needs to account for: - A solid, leak-free pour (no porosity or seams that could let hot wax escape) -vWall thickness suitable for containing hot liquid wax (~180–200°F pour temp) without excessive heat transfer to the outside surface - Interior surface/finish that is safe for direct wax contact (no toxic coatings or platings on the inside) - A wick placement/centering point if possible (e.g., a small interior tab or the base design accommodating a wick sticker) - Material: cast iron - Should account for basic casting requirements (draft angles, wall thickness, avoiding sharp internal corners, etc.) since this will go straight to a foundry for a quote Ideal freelancer: - Experience designing parts specifically for casting or metal manufacturing (not just general product rendering) - Comfortable producing foundry-ready files, not just concept art - Bonus: past experience with cookware, decorative metal goods, or similar cast products To apply, please include: - Examples of past CAD work, especially anything designed for casting/manufacturing - Your estimated turnaround time - Any questions about the design before we get started I have reference images/sketches I can share once we connect. This is a small, well-defined project. It's ideal for someone who can turn it around quickly and is comfortable communicating clearly about casting design constraints.
