Folding Support Mechanism

Fiverr

Oct 2026 - Present • 1 mo

Worked on a client project involving a mechanical folding system with offset pivots, diagonal braces, and coordinated rear support legs. Created a detailed 3D CAD assembly to evaluate how the components moved between the open and folded positions. Checked for potential collisions, alignment issues, and clearance conflicts, then refined the component arrangement to improve folding functionality. Prepared the updated CAD model and supporting design files for the client's engineering review.

Custom Foldable Steel Frame

Sep 2026 - Oct 2026 • 1 mo

Completed a custom foldable steel frame design project for a client who needed a practical structure that could fold compactly for transportation and deploy efficiently during use. Developed the 3D CAD assembly, custom pivot joints, folding support legs, and locking features. Reviewed the folding sequence and component clearances to identify potential interference and improve the overall mechanism layout. Delivered organized CAD files to support design review and manufacturing preparation.
