I am a mechanical engineer and have worked in some sort of design or manufacturing setting for almost 10 years. I specialize in helping companies do three things: 1. Making your product more cost-efficient to produce 2. Refining your product so that it is easy for the customer to use 3. Accelerating your development process. I know speed is key when getting any new project started so I get you what you need ASAP. Some of my accomplishments so far -Helped a company that raised 500k in crowdfunding to develop the product they are now selling, reducing their manufacturing cost by over 20% -Helped a company raise their first round of funding by designing and prototyping their first product -Worked with product development firms with large customers to work out kinks in their designs and fabricate their prototypes -Worked with another crowdfunding campaign to make develop their beta-testing product. -Designed tooling for robotic arms to automate manufacturing processes resulting in massive reduction in labor cost I am proficient in the following disciplines -SolidWorks 2018 -Inventor 2018 -FEA (Finite Element Analysis - finding the weak points in a structural design) -Rapid prototyping (3D Printing, CNC Machining, etc.) -Design for manufacturing I work with a small 3D Printing company here in Chicago that can produce very high quality 3D prints with an excellent turnaround time. I also have a complete workshop with saws/mills/drills/CNC where I can build pieces or prototypes for virtually any project. I love working with startups to get their product moving. I like the fast pace environment and love seeing something we work on go to market.

Hi, I'm Mitchell Wangsgard - a Mechanical Engineer and CAD specialist with hands-on experience in product design, prototyping, and manufacturing support. I hold a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Utah State University (FE-certified, CSWA-certified) and spent nearly a decade at Thermo Fisher Scientific, where I translated customer needs into manufacturable designs, created detailed CAD models and drawings, and supported both R&D and manufacturing engineering. I'm highly proficient in SolidWorks and have a strong background in mechanical assembly, prototyping, and component testing. I'm now offering part-time, remote CAD and engineering services with a focus on clear communication, clean design, and real-world practicality. Whether you need a concept modeled, a product refined, or a drawing set for production, I can help bring your idea to life.
