If you need mechanical design and analysis services on
a part time or full time employment basis, please don’t hesitate to contact
me. On a part time basis, I generally work out of my home office, where I have
all the reference material and computer resources I need. Also, if you need Thermography
(a.k.a. thermal imaging) services, I can perform those as well, contact me
for rates. Examples include thermal load verification of circuit boards
and/or chassis, water intrusion on roof tops, high power transmission
equipment or even medical applications, just to name a few. |
