About

## About Me

I am a Mechanical CAD Designer and a 3rd-year Jig & Die Toolmaking Apprentice with hands-on experience in Autodesk Fusion 360, CNC machining, conventional machining, and manufacturing processes. My practical workshop experience allows me to design components that are not only functional but also practical to manufacture.

I specialize in creating accurate 3D models, detailed 2D engineering drawings, mechanical assemblies, and manufacturing documentation. I understand machining operations such as turning, milling, surface grinding, EDM, and tooling, which helps me design with real-world production in mind.

My services include:

* 3D CAD Modeling (Fusion 360)
* 2D Engineering Drawings
* Mechanical Part Design
* Assembly Design
* Jig & Fixture Design
* Manufacturing Drawings
* Design Modifications
* STL File Creation for 3D Printing
* Product Visualization and Rendering

I am committed to delivering accurate, well-organized, and professional CAD work while maintaining clear communication and meeting project deadlines. Whether you need a concept modeled from a sketch, an existing design modified, or production-ready drawings, I am ready to help bring your ideas to life.

Experience

JIG AND DIE TOOLMAKER APPRENTICE TOOLING@WORK · Full-time Jan 2026 – Present 6 mos South Africa As a 3rd-year Jig & Die Toolmaking Apprentice, I have gained practical experience in mechanical design, precision manufacturing, and tooling. My work includes creating and modifying 3D CAD models and 2D engineering drawings in Autodesk Fusion 360, manufacturing precision components, and assembling jigs, dies, and fixtures.

I have hands-on experience with conventional milling and turning, CNC machining, surface grinding, and EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining). I regularly interpret engineering drawings, apply dimensional tolerances, inspect finished components using precision measuring instruments, and support tooling projects from design through production.

This combination of CAD design and practical manufacturing experience enables me to create designs that are functional, accurate, and ready for production.
