Shimei BaileyCAD & Technical Drawing

Mechanical engineering student. I bring design plans into the prototyping phase.

I have skills in CAD modeling, prototyping, and product design. I create precise technical drawings that communicate complex mechanical designs clearly, and detailed 3D models that are ready to build from.

Projects(01)
Rendering of a mechanical metronome

Metronome

Reverse engineering study and design project.
  • Reverse Engineering
  • Assembly
  • Rendering
GoalTo model and assemble all internal and external parts of a mechanical metronome, using fasteners either customized or from a 3rd party.
ProcessI disassembled, studied, and measured an existing metronome to gain insight into individual components and the entire system. I used what I learned to model, assemble, and render a metronome from scratch within Autodesk Inventor.
Rendering of a vintage hair dryer housing

Vintage Hair Dryer Housing

Designed for injection molding. Uses snap fits for ease of assembly.
  • DFMA
  • Injection Molding
  • Snap Fits
GoalTo design a plastic hair dryer housing for ease of assembly.
ProcessModeled the housing in Autodesk Inventor and applied DFMA principles to integrate snap-fits, lips and rests, and screw bosses, while ensuring the design was suitable for injection molding.
Rendering of a table with steel frame legs

Steel Frame Table Legs

DFM using primary and secondary metal fabrication methods.
  • DFMA
  • Frame Generator
  • Metal Fabrication
GoalTo use industry standards to model and document steel table legs.
ProcessReferencing pre-existing concept images, I used skeletal modeling and the Autodesk Inventor Frame Generator to design table geometry to standards set by the AISC. I used notches and welds to improve quality and reduce assembly time.
