Let’s make it together.

Hi, I’m Elvis Ezeoke, a freelance CAD engineer. I love to design and build in my free time. I open-source a lot of my projects so that anyone can make and modify them.

Have a project you’re working on? Let’s make it together!

NewLatest project

Gyrobot

Gyrobot is a ground drone concept shaped like a sphere. It has retractable wheels, so it sits closed as a ball when idle and extends them for movement. That lets it change shape to suit the space it is in. It can be used for site surveying, search and rescue, and for reaching places that are too risky for people. It can also be used for recreation.

02Profile

A little about me

I design mechanical ideas, build useful things, and share what I learn.

Most of my work begins in CAD, where I develop mechanisms, assemblies, robot concepts and 3D-printable products. I use engineering thinking to turn a rough idea into a design that can be inspected, improved and eventually made.

This site is my personal portfolio and an ongoing record of the things I build. Alongside finished work, I use it to share future CAD projects, PCB designs, build notes and selected files that other people can study or make.

03Method

How I take an idea forward.

01
Understand what it needs to do.

I start by defining the purpose, the constraints and the essential movement or interaction.
02
Develop the design in CAD.

I work through the mechanisms, assemblies and interfaces, improving the design as the system becomes clearer.
03
Prepare it to be made.

I refine the details that affect function, fabrication, assembly and how the finished object will be used.

04Open design

I believe in the power of open design.

I want useful ideas to travel further than a finished render. For selected projects, I share CAD files, PCB Gerbers and build notes so other people can study the decisions, adapt the work and make their own version.

Over time, this portfolio will grow into a wider collection of open projects that helps more people learn by building.
