Description

Do you wish to turn your designs and ideas into tangible physical products that you can develop, use or sell?

Are you creative and want to take your talents to the next level?

This course will springboard your understanding of the engineering world on product manufacture through many prototyping routes such as; turning, milling, laser cutting, water jet machining and many others! Learn how to approach your suppliers with all the necessary information to create your parts, whilst not having the appearance to your supplier of being new to it all! Prevent making some of the mistakes I have made in the past by learning about some errors I have encountered, but also how to handle issues should any problems or disputes arise.

I have personally created components for a race car, including suspension, drivetrain and steering, but also I have built a 3D printer using the knowledge contained in these lectures.

What will you create with the knowledge from this course?
