I specialize in AutoCAD and Revit drafting, technical drawings, construction documentation, joinery/shop drawings, detailing and project facilitation. I understand how drawings need to work on site and have experience coordinating with architects, designers, contractors, manufacturers, suppliers and clients. I can take a concept, sketch or existing design and develop it into clear, accurate and practical construction documentation. I’m experienced in working independently, managing multiple projects and meeting deadlines, while paying close attention to detail and buildability. I am detail oriented and focused on producing accurate and practical drawings.

I am a CAD designer specialising in residential and commercial cabinetry and joinery, producing manufacturing-ready drawings for kitchens, wardrobes, vanity units, and bespoke built-in furniture. My work focuses on practical, buildable solutions, with particular experience in melamine board construction, sheet-material optimisation, and detailing for CNC production. I regularly develop clear shop drawings that include panel sizes, edging, fixings, tolerances, and installation notes, ensuring designs translate accurately from CAD to factory and site. I have hands-on experience coordinating with both European and Chinese manufacturers, which allows me to design with production constraints, cost efficiency, and material availability in mind. This experience helps reduce revisions, manufacturing errors, and lead-time issues—especially for overseas production. 𝗧𝘆𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲: - CAD shop drawings for cabinetry and fit - Cabinet carcass breakdowns and internal layouts - Exploded axonometric drawings - Panel schedules and cut-list information - Coordination drawings for installers and trades - I am comfortable working remotely with architects, interior designers, joinery companies, and manufacturers, providing reliable CAD support across all stages from concept development through to manufacture and installation. - Happy to work on site locally with London architects, clients, builders, fitters and manufacturers.

Bridging the gap between creative design and manufacturing reality. With over 25 years of hands-on experience in the solid wood furniture industry, I don't just draw 3D models—I engineer production-ready solutions. I specialize in helping furniture brands, architects, and manufacturers transform complex designs into efficient, error-free CNC processes. My Core Expertise: Complex 5-Axis Machining: I create optimized strategies for organic shapes (chairs, curved components) using Alphacam and Rhino 3D, ensuring minimal sanding and perfect surface quality. Design for Manufacturing (DfM): I review and refine your designs to align with material constraints (wood movement, yield optimization) and machine capabilities. Jig & Fixture Design: I design custom vacuum jigs and holding fixtures essential for machining complex solid wood parts. Remote Production Management: From G-Code generation to guiding your operators via remote connection, I act as your virtual production manager. Software Stack: Rhino 3D (Advanced Surface Modeling) Alphacam (3 to 5-Axis Programming) 3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering tools Whether you need to reproduce a heritage piece through reverse engineering or set up a production line for a modern chair collection, I provide the technical backbone your project needs.
