Hi Gareth, Great site, great idea!!! Lots of design engineers banging our heads together! I have just made the big jump and started my own design company- Dicer Creative Bespoke CAD CAM design. I am using Solidworks for my design work, I think its pretty industry standard now and freakin awsome! I also offer CAM programs for all my parts and use Sprut CAM from Russia, I have also have the rights to be a sole distributor in UK for the software. Take a look http://www.sprut.co.uk I have been in the plastics industry for 15 years, started as a apprentice toolmaker and have worked up to head product designer. I am looking forward to getting and sharing tips with everyone. Chris Birkett
Hi Chris, Thanks - I'm glad you like the site. I hope it's helpful to you. It's nice to have a place to bang out heads together - certainly beats a wall anyday! Good luck with your business - it sounds exciting. You might like to list yourself in the Mechanical Design Directory. There are both free & heavily discounted listing options for member of this forum. Cheers, Gareth
