About
I design in SolidWorks the way aerospace engineering demands — precise, manufacturable, and ready for the real world the first time.
I'm a 4th-year Aircraft Maintenance Engineering student at Ethiopian Aviation University, where I work daily with the tolerances, fits, and material standards that mechanical systems depend on. That background makes my CAD work fundamentally different from what a general drafter produces: I don't just model geometry, I think about how a part gets made, how it fits with everything around it, what breaks if a dimension is wrong and how it performs in its lifetime.
WHAT I DELIVER
→ 3D CAD modeling in SolidWorks — parts, assemblies, sheet metal, weldments
→ Manufacturing-ready 2D technical drawings with full GD&T callouts
→ Sketch, photo, or PDF → clean, production-ready SolidWorks model
→ STEP, IGES, STL, DXF, and native SolidWorks file delivery
→ Flat patterns for CNC laser/plasma cutting (sheet metal)
→ Exploded views and Bill of Materials for assembly documentation
BEST FIT PROJECTS
→ Mechanical parts and sub-assemblies for manufacturing
→ Product prototypes and consumer hardware
→ Aviation and aerospace related projects
→ Sheet metal enclosures, brackets, and fixtures
→ Sketch-to-CAD conversion (hand drawings, photos, napkin concepts)
→ Reverse engineering from physical samples or reference images
→ Engineering drawing packages for machine shops
If you have a sketch, a rough concept, or an existing part that needs redesigning or documenting properly, send me a message with the details.
