About the job
Project Overview
I am an independent inventor seeking an experienced CAD designer or mechanical design engineer to assist with developing a small, wearable metal product.
The product is currently in the early stages of development. I have already completed preliminary design sketches, patent drawings, measurements, and a product specification sheet.
I am looking for a qualified professional to translate my existing design into an accurate, prototype-ready 3D CAD model, with consideration for future manufacturing.
Scope of Work
* Review existing product drawings, dimensions, and specifications.
* Create a precise 3D CAD model based on the original design.
* Refine dimensions and geometry where necessary.
* Consider ergonomics, fit, functionality, and manufacturing feasibility.
* Recommend appropriate metal materials and potential manufacturing methods.
* Make revisions based on feedback while maintaining the original design intent.
Expected Deliverables
1. Complete and accurate 3D CAD model.
2. Editable native CAD files (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or equivalent).
3. STEP file suitable for prototype manufacturing.
4. Basic dimensioned technical drawings.
5. Up to two rounds of revisions.
Required Qualifications
* Professional experience with SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or comparable CAD software.
* Experience designing small metal components, wearable accessories, jewelry, or precision products.
* Understanding of design for manufacturing (DFM)....

* Ability to work from existing drawings and product specifications.
* Experience preparing CAD files for physical prototyping.
Project Details
Project Type: One-time freelance project
Estimated Timeline: 1–3 weeks, depending on complexity and revisions.
Budget: Approximately $300 for the initial CAD modeling phase. Open to reviewing quotes based on qualifications and scope.
Potential Future Work: Additional assistance with physical prototyping and manufacturing preparation.
Communication & Confidentiality
I value clear communication, attention to detail, and regular progress updates.
I would like to review the initial CAD model before final deliverables are completed.
This project involves an original invention for which a U.S. provisional patent application has been filed. A confidentiality agreement and written intellectual property ownership terms will be required before detailed proprietary designs and specifications are shared.
How to Apply
Please provide:
* Examples of relevant CAD projects or previous work.
* Your experience with small metal products or wearable designs.
* Your estimated project cost.
* Your estimated completion timeline.
* Whether you have experience preparing designs for metal prototyping.
Thank you! I look forward to reviewing your proposal.
