Hello! We need a gymnastics product designed in Vcarve pro 12.0. We have all measurements and images for the product that's already in use, but we need to be able to cut pieces on our CNC to build more. I've attached an image of one of our current products that we make from a vcarve file so that you can see what we're looking for. We do NOT need it in 3d. I don't mind a 3d model but we really need 2d cuts to make NC files for the machine Budget is very flexible; we need high quality designs more than we need to save money

We are seeking a skilled 3D CAD designer with engineering experience to edit existing CAD files and assist in product development. The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of CAD software and be able to make precise modifications to existing designs. Experience in product development is a plus. If you have a keen eye for detail and can work independently, we would love to hear from you. All applicants must be willing to sign an NDA and adhere to strict confidentiality.

We are looking for an experienced Product Designer / CAD Engineer to develop a custom cup holder and utility table system for a vehicle interior. This is not a simple "copy an existing design" project. We are looking for someone who can bring ideas to the table, challenge assumptions, improve existing concepts, and help create a product that looks OEM-quality, functions exceptionally well, and is ready for manufacturing. ### What We're Looking For * Strong CAD and product design skills * Experience designing automotive, camper van, marine, or similar products * Knowledge of design for 3D printing, CNC machining, and production manufacturing * Strong understanding of ergonomics, usability, and real-world product development * Ability to develop original concepts, not just modify existing designs * Excellent communication skills and reliability are a MUST ### Communication & Responsibility Expectations Communication is extremely important for this project. In previous projects, we encountered delays caused by poor communication and a lack of progress updates. To avoid that situation, we are specifically looking for someone who is professional, responsive, and proactive throughout the entire design process. We are looking for someone who: * Provides regular progress updates * Communicates proactively when challenges arise * Meets agreed milestones and deadlines * Is responsive and professional throughout the project * Takes ownership of the design process and contributes ideas If you tend to disappear for days without updates or require constant follow-up, this project is probably not a good fit. ### Project Goals Potential features include: * Larger cup holders for Yeti-style bottles and Big Gulp cups * Modular tabletop solution * Complete replacement design or insert-style solution * Improved functionality, durability, and OEM-style appearance * Design optimized for 3D printing and production We welcome creative ideas and alternative design approaches if they result in a better final product. ### Deliverables * Concept sketches and/or renders * Production-ready CAD files * Prototype-ready files * Manufacturing recommendations * Design rationale explaining key design decisions ### To Apply Please include: * Portfolio of relevant projects * Examples of products you designed from concept to production * Estimated timeline and budget (project is ready to start immediately) * CAD software used (Fusion 360, SolidWorks, etc.) This project may lead to a long-term collaboration on additional automotive accessory products with the right designer, and potentially a full-time position.

🚨 We don't need a super long first message from you but please don't use Ai.. we're looking for someone to read this, and actually vet if they think they're up for it :) Simple project: we are creating a box for a toy.. we need to design a blister for the inside of the box to hold components.. one part requires slightly custom design.. imagine if there was a section to hold a pair of glasses where it sat on the bridge of nose.. That's really it! TIMING 🚨 ASAP.. we're looking for someone to turn this around in 2-3 days max. Could lead to future work :)

I’m looking for a mechanical engineer, product design engineer, or experienced prototype designer to help with the first phase of a compact consumer product prototype. This is a dog waste pickup tool concept. The initial phase focuses on mechanism feasibility and design direction, not a final or production-ready product. Product direction: * Compact, handheld, portable design with a slim telescoping wand and small angled pickup head * Designed for use with standard dog poop bags if possible * Intended for post-pickup use (not a catching device), minimizing smearing and temporarily containing waste near the head * Allows manual removal and tying of the bag * Target collapsed size of approximately 12 inches, if practical Important: Portability is critical. The design should be lightweight and discreet, not bulky like a large grabber tool, and suitable for carrying during walks. First phase goal: A fixed-price phase focused on evaluating mechanism feasibility and identifying a viable concept direction. Phase 1 deliverables may include: * Recommended mechanism and form factor direction * Rough sketches or simple CAD concepts, including head/bag interface * Assessment of standard bag compatibility * Key mechanical risks, tradeoffs, and simplest path to a proof-of-concept prototype * Rough estimate for the next build/test phase Budget: $300 fixed for Phase 1. If successful, a second paid phase may follow for physical prototype build, testing, video demonstration, and shipping. Please reply with: 1. Relevant experience with compact mechanical products, mechanisms, telescoping designs, 3D CAD, or 3D printed prototypes 2. Your approach to the first phase 3. What you can deliver within the $300 budget 4. Any immediate concerns or tradeoffs 5. Whether you can build/test physical prototypes in a later phase
