Hello,
I am interested in your project because I have great working mechanical and product design experience. Freelancing since 2006, and mech. design eng. since 1999. I am Top Rated freelancer on Upwork and active on Guru too. I have done many similar projects in past. My specialty is 3D CAD & Engineering which includes:
- 3D modeling and design of parts and assemblies including: mechanical, plastic enclosures, sheet metal, basic archi. constructions, steel and alum. frames, furniture and especially pipelines design),
- creating production and assembly drawings,
- editing existing 3D files, conversions and exporting to another 3D CAD file,
- creating assembly animations, presentations and renderings,
- FEA of parts and assemblies, and
- Autodesk Inventor training guided by Certified Instructor.
My main 3D CAD is Autodesk Inventor Professional (Certified professional), but I am also familiar with SolidWorks and AutoCAD (2D). Take a look at some of my project samples here on my portfolio page.
I would like to review some of your reference material for your BBQ project. After reviewing material, I can tell you my opinion (time needed, more info if needed...).
While working on project I usually send clients 3D DWF (there is free viewer on net) and 2D pdf files for review.
Best regards
Nikola S - Mech. Design Eng. & Autodesk Inventor Certified Professional & Instructor
