About Me

I have worked in the design and engineering field for 28 plus years developing extensive experience working closely with manufacturing, quality control and systems, electrical, mechanical and software engineers in support of DOD projects involving space and aerospace-based applications, tooling, test fixtures, machine parts and assemblies, pneumatic, hydraulics, electro-mechanical packaging, vehicle, automation and systems integration.

Using digital prototype modeling applications featuring top-down skeleton modeling techniques, tabled geometry and assembly systems, some finite, and dynamics analysis, drafting and detailing with GD&T.

I have worked with such companies as Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics Robotics Systems, Smiths Detection, Able Lift systems, Ensco Rail, Chemring, United States Bullet Proofing, CTI, ARINC and Weber State University CAST / OSSS with experience involving manufacturing and fabrication processes using manual lathe and end-mill fabrication of flight article parts and assemblies, inspection, testing and facilities construction, in support of DOD and space based structural components wherein I cut my own parts and fixtures, inspected them, assembled and supported testing and integration of completed projects. I have also worked in support of computer systems networking, design, development and management of database design and development, on-line data management, IT support assistance, HTML, XML, LSL and visual basic.

About my site:

Delta Design and Engineering Solutions is my pencil sharpening box.

Delta DES and the logo have actually been something I have been working on in one way or another since high school. I came up with the triangle logo after getting a notebook for high school.

Delta DES serves as an engineering library featuring links, training and content in support of general engineering needs as well as a place for me to refine my skills, showcase projects that I have worked on for various companies where not bound by confidentiality which is most everywhere.

Provided to and interact with the Autodesk Inventor and CAD community via the "I-Resource" library featuring content models, materials, templates, standards, and more.

Promote the use of the Origin Axis Methodology (OAM) promoting consistency in modeling practices and the DELTA CAD standards providing "company X, who wants to build a widget" with standards for consistent CAD practices.

Created as a set of standards for the documentation of CAD designs, the Delta CAD standards are based on the ANSI Y 14 standards and the Drawing Requirements Manual 11th edition.

The standards are designed to be used as a template that is as generic as possible to provide a starting point from which a company may build upon to create company standards tailored to their specific needs and meet ISO 9000 standards.

Content featured in the projects section are the proprietary content of their respective publishers where specified and can be found at the links associated with each of the sites where they have been published in detail.

Special Thanks and full credit go to the contributors of library contents, this material can be found only in the 3rd-Party Content library of the Delta DES site.

TO BE CLEAR:

While my web site name Delta Design and Engineering Solutions does provide me with a vehicle for self-employment as an independent consultant or contractor and while I have had a few opportunities to do so, to date I have not nor do I have any plans at present to be self-employed. 

I have not nor do I plan to incorporate as an LLC or any other corporation entity. 

Quite simply, in order to do what I would want to do to make Delta DES a company I would have to win the lottery! However, I do like the idea of maintaining a professional presence on the web such that I could do so if I needed/wanted too.

This site's primary objectives, as previously stated, are to provide and interact with the cad community at large as an engineering resource library, to advertise myself to potential employer’s kind of a "resume on steroids", provide for my email address and personal library materials in the DES Library.

This web site and the content therein has been compiled and built entirely by me and is powered by Google. 

It is the face of what I would do for a company if I were to incorporate and go into business for myself which for personal reasons at present I cannot do. 

Given today's society however, most people in my position may decide to use face book twitter or other social web sites. In this business however, with the exception of Linked-In I have found that it is not wise, so you can consider this a glorified blog and/or my "resume on steroids ''.
