Josh B.

I am an independent systems and mechanical design engineer specializing in turning complex physical concepts into functional, manufacture-ready CAD models and prototypes. My work bridges mechanical engineering, electro-mechanical hardware, and computational modeling, delivering clean geometry optimized for production and benchtop validation.
Whether you need rapid 3D printing concepts, sheet metal fabrication models, precision electromechanical enclosures, or full parametric assemblies, I provide meticulous documentation and robust source files tailored to your manufacturing constraints. Core Technical Capabilities:

3D CAD & Parametric Modeling: Complex solid/surface modeling, kinematic assembly design, tolerance analysis, and GD&T.

Electro-Mechanical & Hardware Architecture: Custom enclosures, PCB integration/footprints, thermal path routing, and actuator/motor integration.

Manufacturing Preparation (DFM/DFA): Design for additive manufacturing (FDM/SLA/SLS), CNC milling/turning, sheet metal brake forming, and silicone casting.

Physics & Kinematics Modeling: Flow path layout, clearance checking, structural integrity, and multi-body motion validation.

Production Deliverables: Fully dimensioned 2D engineering drawings, fabrication-ready STEP/IGES, DXF, and STL files, along with structured Bills of Materials (BOM).

I prioritize clear technical communication, rapid turnaround times, and clean file architectures that make handoffs to machine shops and production lines effortless.
