About
Hi there! Thanks for visiting my profile.
I’m a 27-year-old CAD & Fabrication Technician based in Kilmarnock, Scotland. Currently, I work with Fabtech Scotland Ltd, an established UK manufacturing firm with over 30 years of expertise specializing in bespoke fabrications and components for the UK bus industry.
As the sole 3D CAD specialist at the company, I led our transition into 3D design—building modern parametric assemblies directly from existing laser-cutting CAM files, flat DXF/DWG patterns, and finished physical parts. I also authored and produced the company’s first-ever comprehensive parts catalog in its 30-year history.
I’m passionate about expanding my technical skills, tackling complex mechanical challenges, and collaborating with hardware startups, inventors, and fabrication shops.
Services I offer for freelance projects and custom commissions:
3D Product Modeling & Design: Parametric part and assembly modeling from concept or hand sketches (Fusion 360).
Sheet Metal Design & CAM Conversion: Converting flat 2D patterns, DXF/DWG files, or laser drawings into full 3D sheet metal models.
Manufacturing & Fabrication Drawings: Clear, production-ready technical drawings drafted to BS 8888 standards.
3D Printing & Prototyping Files: Exporting clean, watertight STL/STEP files optimized for FDM, SLA, or CNC fabrication.
Reverse Engineering: Recreating accurate 3D CAD files directly from physical parts and measured samples.
Whether you need a single custom component designed, legacy 2D drawings updated to modern 3D CAD, or an ongoing design partner for your fabrication projects, I’d be glad to help bring your ideas to reality.
Drop me a message with your project details or drawings to get started!
Best regards,
Lee
