Work
Real parts, built to a standard.
Twelve parts, each designed for a named industry with the material called out and a dimensioned drawing behind it. Every card shows the part and its drawing sheet; switch between them on the card, or open the sheet full size.
The standard every piece meets
Portfolio brief
Every card names the part, who it is for, what it proves and one real number, and carries a full drawing sheet: third-angle views, dimensions, material, print notes and tolerances. Nothing goes on this page that does not meet the list below.
The part
- Industrial, not hobby. Brackets, clamps, clips, fixtures, housings, replacement parts. No novelties, no logos that belong to someone else, no decor.
- Proves one skill. A press fit, a thread, a support-free overhang, a parametric family, a reverse-engineered OEM part. The caption says which.
- Has a number on it. A tolerance held, a load, a temperature, a quantity, a turnaround. One real figure per card.
The colour and finish
- Matte light grey for everything. Layer lines read as precision, not as plastic.
- Black carbon-fibre nylon for two or three hero parts only.
- Never gold, red, silk, rainbow, or two-tone. Supports removed, edges deburred, no stringing in shot.
The documentation
- The part. Rendered on a plain grey sweep, three-quarter angle, in its real material and colour. Nothing else in frame.
- The drawing. An A3 sheet in third-angle projection: front, top, right and isometric, dimensioned, with notes and a title block.
- The build notes. Material, layer height, orientation, supports, infill and the number that matters: a fit, a mass, a repeatability.
