I am a mechanical engineer with over 14 years’ experience in machine design, building and maintenance.
I design components and complete machines for architectural projects and machine building companies. Design includes product development and testing of machinery.
My expertise lies in 3D design and cost engineering - that includes product costings before detailed design. I also have manufacturing partners who manufacture and commission the machines I design.
Examples of recent small jobs completed:
1. Laser cut and bent steel parts as architectural features for a building contractor.
2. Custom power inverter rig.
3. A series of 3 fire place designs.
4. Reverse engineering of parts of discontinued farming implements.
Examples of recent bigger jobs:
1. Animal feed processing machinery including conveyors, storage hoppers, steel work and bucket elevator.
2. Safety fencing and platforms for a flour mill.
3. 4-bay steel car port.
4. Draughting house plans for a R15m+, renovated house in Hermanus. This included plumbing, wooden stairs, patio and pergolas. This job was done in partnership with an architect.
