About
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.
