I will design 3d cad models for prototyping 3d printing


About this gig
As a mechanical engineering master's student with hands-on experience in CAD design, FEA, and prototyping, I specialize in creating accurate and functional 3D models for a wide range of applications, from mechanical systems and assemblies to conceptual product designs, enclosures, and simulation-ready geometries using parametric modeling and clear design intent for easy future editing and iteration.
Project types:
- Design from sketch
- Design for manufacturing
- Prototyping from initial ideas
Project formats:
- 3D printing design (STL)
- Solid 3D modeling
- Weldment modeling
- Sheet metal modeling
- Surface modeling
- Laser cutting (DXF)
- Engineering drawings (PE or Mechanical)
Software Proficiency:
- SolidWorks (CSWE certified, most preferred software)
- Fusion 360
- OnShape
Deliverables:
- Native (e.g., SLDPRT) and neutral (STEP) CAD files
- STL/OBJ for 3D printing
- Laser cutting (DXF)
- 2D drawings with dimensions and annotations (optional)
- Renders/Animation for documentation or presentation (optional)
Work may be showcased in my portfolio unless requested otherwise.

FAQ
Do you offer custom offers in the case a project doesn't fit the scope of your pricing?
Definitely, I am more than willing to negotiate custom offers depending on the scope of the project.
What software do you use for modeling?
I primarily use SolidWorks and Fusion 360 for 3D modeling. I'm also comfortable exporting in standard formats like STL and STEP so you can use the files in your preferred CAD or slicing software.
Can you create assemblies or multi-part models?
Yes! I can design multi-body models or full assemblies. Just let me know how the parts should interact or fit together.
Will I be able to edit the files myself later?
Yes! I provide editable native files for Fusion 360 and SolidWorks, using parametric design, clear feature structure, and design intent, making future edits much easier — whether by you or another designer. I also include a STEP file for compatibility with other CAD programs.
I need a model based on an existing product or photo. Can you reverse-engineer it?
Whether it’s a detailed technical drawing, a rough sketch, or a reference photo, I can work with it. The more information you provide, the more accurate the final model will be.
Can you make my part 3D-printable?
Absolutely! I can optimize your model for 3D printing by ensuring correct tolerances, part orientation, and structural integrity. If you have a specific printer or material in mind, let me know.
I’m new to CAD/3D printing. Can you guide me?
Absolutely — I’m happy to answer questions and offer basic guidance to help you get the most out of your files. My goal is to make the process smooth and collaborative.
What if I need revisions?
Reasonable revisions are included! If you need minor changes, I'm happy to make them within the scope of the gig. For major design changes, we can discuss a custom offer.

It was great working with Nathan. He was very responsive and working across separate time zones was not a challenge. When giving feedback on what I wanted to be done/changed he took my feeble explanations and pretty much got it right on the first go. This meant we had minimal revisions and still made...
