23.01.2022 Digital sketching and rendering skills used for presenting the Prep Pack. Industrial design sketching skills are used to quickly explore ideas for product design and development. This skill is useful for presenting concepts by visually communicating design aspects to efficiently discuss with clients for feedback and direction. I used Copic markers and fine liners to produce these hand drawings, and then touched them up on my iPad to overlay digital rendering techniques. ...

22.01.2022 Product development sketches of the Prep Pack. These hand drawings show assembly considerations and rough dimensions that become my foundation for CAD modelling :) I also used some large drafting paper for drawing 1:1 scale elevations to confirm the overall dimensions and proportions of the product.

22.01.2022 This product system is designed to improve the living conditions for youths in humanitarian villages for disaster relief from an educational aspect. CLASS is a drop-in solution that provides compact, multi-functional products to facilitate a learning environment. CLASS is a Community Learning and Social System that facilitates an educational environment and helps children reconnect with normal lifestyles.

22.01.2022 CAD Configurations and Display States - using smart Mates in SolidWorks I can set up assembly files to easily switch between models and operational states that vary by changing sizes, positions and orientations of parts. The CAD screenshots shown here are of a Liquid Cooled Head (LCH). These units can be fitted on Jabiru Aircraft Engines to keep cylinder head temps low. It is an aftermarket product available at Rotec, who manufacturer radial engines as showcased in my animat...ion - https://youtu.be/w6PgUx6LZVM - www.rotecaerosport.com - www.dancabraldesign.com #mechanical #assembly #solidworks #transparent #design #cad

20.01.2022 3D Renders of the Inkjecta Flite X1 Tattoo Machine - Glass Colourway. After producing a series of low res test renders, I made these high res renders for confirming camera angles and material appearances - colours, textures and finishes. I worked closely with my client @inkjecta @seanjelinek to make minor adjustment before producing the final renders, and they were very please with the result! ...

15.01.2022 The best thing about Freelancing is that you don’t need to deal with corporate bullshit and useless managers... I have definitely comes across a couple of delusional managers in my time and I am sure most have! Can you relate to this picture? Is it an accurate depiction of your company? Also, what image best describes you and your position? ...

15.01.2022 Quick and nasty design and prototyping using a whiteboard and cardboard I used a whiteboard to sketch 1:1 Scale drawings to figure out dimensional details, pivot points and locations of features. I also prototyped a card board mock-up to visualise the concept and to get a hands on understanding of basic functions.

13.01.2022 Exploded View Drawings for technical documentation and instructional manuals. I drafted these in Solidworks to project exploded views and section views that highlight critical components. This also allowed me to quickly generate Parts Lists/Bill of Materials (BOM). I prepared CAD configurations for each assembly stage and step as performed in the real world production line - which is reflected in my assembly animation seen here https://youtu.be/w6PgUx6LZVM - www.rotecaerosport.com - www.dancabraldesign.com #assembly #drawing #solidworks #explodedview #sectionview #gears

12.01.2022 This vector artwork is of my favourite NBA player Allen Iverson. The artwork was printed and then press transferred directly on a pine board which has worked really well, and is looking great in the DCD Office This was created and gifted to me by a fellow PDE, my best mate Deep - www.dkpde.com Thanks heaps bro, it is an awesome addition to my workspace! #adobeillustrator #vectorart #alleniverson #philadelphia #76ers #nba #usa #basketball #adobe #illustrator

11.01.2022 Quick delivery of Disaster Relief Design! Here are some 3D renders of a product that is designed to provide disaster relief for youths in difficult times.

11.01.2022 I have designed several Engine Mount Frames for various lightweight aircraft types - the aircraft model shown here is a Hatz Classic Biplane. I liaised with customers to establish critical dimensions and essential clearances required to successfully mount an engine to their planes firewall. I adjusted the CAD model and drawing to display the geometry of Mount Frame. After I received client approval I would hand the drawing to the technician and answer an questions for the cu...stom weldment to be fabricated. Mounting the engine is usually the last step to complete these recreational projects...after that the customer is flying The photos shown here are of John Kerrs Hatz Biplane powered by a R3600 and located in Switzerland, and I did the drawings for Ed Whites equivalent project while working at Rotec (www.rotecaerosport.com)...

10.01.2022 Here are more examples of Engine parts designed for manufacture (DFM) - Rocker Box Components. These CNC machined components were made within the tolerances that I detailed in the engineering drawings. In a 4-stroke combustion engine these mechanical parts control the opening and closing of the exhaust and inlet valves.

03.01.2022 Rendering with Copic Markers really make industrial design sketches more presentable - whether it is for a quick doodle or for a detailed presentation drawing. Sketching skills are used to quickly explore concepts and visually communicate design aspects in an efficient manner. Sometimes I add a colourful background that contrasts the primary colours in the foreground - This can be a very a useful technique as shown in the orthographic hand drawing of an Orange Cordless Drill.

03.01.2022 Storage Mezzanine Design - Additional storage space was required above Stock Shelves in a Production Hangar. I physically visited the site and measured the available space, existing objects and stock shelves which served as design parameters. All components were based on OEM materials that are readily available standard lengths and profiles. I designed the stair case and ceiling height to Australian standards. I sourced all materials from local suppliers and overlooked the in...stallation. The Mezzanine was constructed and designed in-house to keep costs low.

02.01.2022 For this project I worked on various design and marketing facets, including the Company Logo, 3D Product Renders and graphic design of a print-ready Promotional Brochure.
