About
I am a Mechanical Engineer with experience in 3D CAD design, technical drawings, product development, and manufacturing documentation.
I help individuals, makers, and small businesses turn ideas, sketches, photos, or existing parts into detailed 3D models and production-ready drawings.
My services include 3D modeling, technical documentation, prototype design, custom product development, and reverse engineering of damaged or hard-to-find parts.
I also have experience creating files for 3D printing and developing custom solutions for hobby, engineering, and fabrication projects.
I focus on clear communication, attention to detail, and delivering practical, professional results.

Hired on Thumbtack
I had a great experience working with PresCaliG Design & Engineering. I took a chance based on their Thumbtack profile, credentials and a very positive review. I had a limited budget to create CAD/3D production-ready files to produce a functioning prototype of a new invention (everyday carry product). They were well-priced, professional, responsive and really went above and beyond sharing various renderings and answering all of my questions in the design process. Consider me a happy client. Highly recommend.

I have seen several of Alain's engineering and 3D design projects, including functional parts, product concepts, and technical designs. His work demonstrates strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a solid understanding of mechanical design. He is reliable, creative, and committed to delivering quality results. I highly recommend him for 3Dmodeling and technical design projects.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing depends on the complexity of the project, required deliverables, and turnaround time. Simple 3D modeling projects may have a fixed price, while more complex engineering, product development, or reverse engineering projects are quoted individually. I provide clear estimates before work begins and there are no hidden fees.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start by discussing the customer's goals, requirements, and any available sketches, photos, or existing parts. Then I create a proposal, develop the CAD model, and provide updates throughout the process. Depending on the project, I can also create technical drawings, prototypes, and manufacturing-ready files. Customer feedback is incorporated at each stage.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold a degree in Mechanical Engineering and have experience in CAD design, product development, technical documentation, manufacturing processes, and prototyping. I have worked extensively with 3D modeling, engineering drawings, 3D printing, and custom mechanical design projects.
