I was recommended to this company by Bendigo TAFE after completion of the Diploma of Engineering specialising in Autocad and Inventor design.

Prior to my contract the designs of all of the horse dentistry equipment in staff members heads, old hand written drawings, written of backs of lunch wrappers and on greasy sheets of paper.

My contract was to reverse engineer all of the speciality horse dentistry tools and place them on a computer file as Inventor drawings that could be sent to clients for approval. Prior to this the company would manufacture a tool and send it to the client for approval.

During my contract I completed over 300 component assembly drawings.
