WORK EXPERIENCE
Since 1995, I have spent over 16 years working for a precision engineering company where I started as a general assistant, getting an apprenticeship and working my way up to a team leader and technical support engineer and apprentice training officer.
I've worked with CAD software Solidworks since 2010 where 3D models were used to aid in the manufacture of machined parts.
Since then I've worked for a Coachbuilding company in the design office and in June 2015 I started DMP 3D where I now utilise my skills by offering a Design Machine Print 3D service.
I've worked on some fantastic projects since starting DMP 3D, a lot of which I am unable to share due to confidentiality agreements and customer requests. Some projects are sensitive due to IP rights so rest assured DMP 3D will always treat the work we do with great confidence.
