About Me

I founded MN3D Design to provide remote mechanical design, 3D CAD modelling, 2D engineering drawings, and 3D printing services to inventors, makers, and businesses across the UK. With more than 40 years of experience in high-tech industries, I bring the knowledge and precision needed to turn ideas into working prototypes and production-ready products.

From Concept to Prototype

My background includes projects in computing, electronics, mobile devices, automotive, aerospace, motorsport, medical devices, and defence applications.

I offer a complete design service tailored to your needs:

  • Components, assemblies, and full product designs.

  • Detailed manufacturing documentation.

  • In-house FDM & SLA 3D printing facilities.

  • Enclosures, fixtures, and complex assemblies.

Decades of Design Experience

  • Electronic Enclosures – from mainframes and desktop systems to rugged handheld devices.

  • Motorsport Projects – F1 inverters and electronics for Formula E racing cars.

  • Aerospace & Defence – rugged video displays, avionics enclosures, and test systems.

  • Consumer Electronics – mobile phones, micro cameras, multimedia systems, and smart radios.

  • Prototyping & Test Fixtures – tools for product evaluation, jigs, and precision rigs.

Over the course of four decades, I’ve worked on:
