I have used Rhino and Grasshopper for more than 8 years, for a range of applications including jewellery, product design and architecture.

I have a Masters degree in geology, and spent 5 years building geological models for mining companies before pursuing more aesthetic modeling projects. I tutor a range of clients with varied skill levels in how to get the most out of these powerful software tools. I am patient, adaptable to the different needs of students, and enjoy working with people to find the teaching method that works best for them.

I have over 10 years of experience using multiple CAD platforms such as Fusion 360, NX 9, Solidworks, Autodesk Inventor, and more. This experience stems from my passion for design and engineering. In high school, I was on a robotics team as a machinist and designer, creating parts using mills, lathes, and other tools while designing actuating arms and other robotic sub-assemblies. I've worked as a fabricator, welder, and machinist, taking on jobs that involved building everything from airplanes and 3D printers to hot dog carts. My work experience has taught me the most important lesson for designers: how things are made. I will not only assist with your introduction to Fusion 360 but also your start as a designer. When using CAD, it's easy to lose sight of the big picture. Many times I've designed parts that were impossible to make, and I’ll help you avoid making the same mistakes.

I am a landscape architect and have used Rhino, 3D modeling, CAD, GIS, digital media, and computational design.

Hello! My name is Calvin. I’m an architectural designer with a Masters degree in Architecture and Building Technology from Yale Univeristy. I currently work at an international architecture firm, and have past experience in everything from fabrication shops to parametric design firms. I grew up playing music, always learning and playing new instruments. When I discovered the field of architecture, I started to see technology as an instrument by which we could create a more beautiful world. From parametrics to game design, I’m proficient in a number of architectural, rendering, data visualization, graphic design, robotics, sound engineering, and animation softwares. Through learning these tools, together we can visualize the world around us!

With over 22 years of experience in teaching CAD, CAM, machining, and product design, I bring a wealth of knowledge and hands-on expertise to my tutoring services. Throughout my career, I have worked with a variety of 3D parametric modeling software, including Fusion 360, Inventor, SolidWorks, MasterCAM, and AutoCAD.

In addition to freelancing, I teach an Advanced Manufacturing Program at the high school level. This role has allowed me to work with a wide range of learners, enabling me to tailor my teaching approach to suit each student's unique needs. With hundreds of lessons and real-world examples at my disposal, I'm equipped to guide you through your educational journey in CAD.

My extensive experience spans all aspects of the manufacturing process—design, drawing, production, assembly, and testing—which makes me particularly skilled in designing for manufacturability. I can help integrate best practices into your designs or explain the rationale behind key decisions to improve the efficiency and feasibility of the manufacturing process.

Beyond CAD, I have over 30 years of hands-on experience running CNC and manual machines, both professionally and as a hobbyist. This experience has given me a deep understanding of workholding, tooling, machining techniques, G-code, CNC controllers, inspection, measuring, and GD&T. I am also proficient in 3D printing, understanding the nuances of preparing designs for additive manufacturing. Whether you need help refining your designs or improving your machining knowledge, I’m confident I can provide theinsights and support you need.

Hello, my name is Anthony R, I started drafting when I was 15 for the family business. My father is a fine finish general contractor and cabinet manufacturer, and grandfather was an architect. Neither of them used cad, so I began inputting hand sketches into 3D Autocad when I was 15 years old. Over 10 years ago, I began utilizing solidworks for creative product development, sculptures, furniture, and full production drawings for architectural metal and glass fabrication. My unique skill set has opened doors for me to stay consistently busy as a subcontracted designer/developer in Seattle, Portland, Brooklyn, and most recently Spokane/Coeur d’Alene.

My favorite projects are ultra high end luxury residential design for fabrication featuring steel, stainless and glass with an emphasis on invisible fastening, modularity and seamless aesthetics. I spent over 3 years mastering waterjet cutting stained and fusible art glass, glass bending, laminated glass, and have worked for some incredible glass artists and architectural glass installers in the Pacific Northwest and NYC.

I’ve developed horticultural, architectural and artistic lighting products that meet UL and other safety certification requirements. I can take any concept, project, or product, and refine it into an incredible finished product with exceptional speed and accuracy, ready to be manufactured utilizing whatever supply chain best suited for your application and volume.

I’ve designed custom aluminum extrusions, custom sheet metal forming and turret tools, and even developed and patented several state of the art manufacturing processes and origami-inspired structural shapes that provide exceptional strength:weight ratios and require no fasteners or welding thanks to the proprietary folding and joining methods.

My favorite manufacturing technology is hands down LASERS, whether it’s sheet metal laser cutting, tube laser cutting or handheld laser welding, I’m all about lasers. In addition to launching my own product lines, consulting, and training; I’m also a sales rep for the most innovative handheld laser welding machine that makes welding beautiful handheld seams in nearly all metals easier than running a caulk bead.

I am also highly preferential to CNC waterjet cutting, have developed several concepts related to hyper-sonic hydro-pneumatic machining, continuous loop abrasive recycle cutting, and innovative fixturing and material support systems.

I can do projects simple or highly complex, communicate and train efficiently, and make it fun along the way. If you are interested in learning more about Solidworks, product development, manufacturing, or just simple 3d modeling for 3d printing, I’d love to work with you and get you to where you want to go.
