3rd year project -  Sheep Wrangling Machine

3rd year project - Sheep Wrangling Machine

The goal of this project is to design a WTF machine that starts at ‘A’ and collects the 10 sheep (3D-printed PLA), randomly placed on the green ‘paddock’ at ‘B ‘. The 10 sheep must end up in the plastic container at ‘A‘ with no sheep touching the green ‘paddock’. Currently our group is in the…

WESMO CLUB - Mount brackets for suspension travel sensor (2026)

WESMO CLUB - Mount brackets for suspension travel sensor (2026)

Designing mounts for suspension travel sensors on the 2026 Formula SAE race car presented an immediate geometric challenge. The front and rear suspensions have fundamentally different geometries, requiring two entirely separate mounting solutions rather than a single adaptable design. I work the…

Personal projects - 3D printing

I self taught design and fabrication of functional objects using SolidWorks and FDM 3D printing Projects have included storage solutions, organizers, and custom fixtures designed entirely from scratch. A recurring engineering challenge has been PLA warping. Rather than accepting failed prints, I…

WESMO club - 2023 car revamp & suspension brakets (2025)

WESMO club - 2023 car revamp & suspension brakets (2025)

At WESMO, I collaborated with members on this car revamp. We have to rebuild the 2023 race car to a presentable and safe standard intended for driver training. The plan is to repaint it for display during major university events. My involvement included hands-on disassembly, inspection, and…

2nd year project - Nutcracker machine

2nd year project - Nutcracker machine

The project required understanding the mechanical advantage principles behind crack force generation, translating that into a feasible drive mechanism, and iterating through 10 prototype drawing revisions before committing to manufacture. Each iteration addressed a specific structural or functional…

Remote - controlled boat

Remote - controlled boat

In first year, I had my first group project to design and built remote-controlled boats to compete at the university lake. We had to complete it over 10 weeks involving boat components briefing, SolidWorks modelling and boat building sessions. My specific responsibility was the rudder design by…

Support Frame Project

Support Frame Project

Structural frame design project with the constraint of supporting a minimum 5kg load at 750mm height using a 2D-analysis. The design process involved structural analysis to determine member forces and identify where failure was most likely to occur, then iterating the geometry to improve load…
