I need an experienced CAD designer to modify the format of a CAD model I have created with 2 components on it. It is currently a 3D mesh model which I created from a parametric model I made from a scan of my prototype (STL) and then creating sketches and lofting it. The problem was the surface was not smooth so I had to create a mesh model so I could smooth the surface and 3d print. My tooling designer has now asked for this as a 3D solid model not a mesh model. The parametric I have created does not have a smooth surface hence the need for me to create the mesh model. My tooling designer says they can not work with a mesh model. I need an experienced CAD modeller to take my mesh model and transform it to a 3D solid model please in a STEP format so can be used for tooling design. I own all of the IP and created the original model. Tolerance needs to be 0.1mm to the mesh model. I need it doing within 2-3 days. I can send the STEP file under a confidential agreement for you to assess and quote. However the file consists of two rubber components each one about 8 cm by 5cm by 2cm and they are organic shapes so needs careful construction. For example imagine the shape of a leaf folded into a cup shape and with varying thickness. After the original work I may require further updates. Apologies if you provided me a response for this project last week. Freelancer accidentally deleted it but feel free to respond again.

Hello, I'm Avatarist, an experienced CAD designer specializing in reverse engineering, surface modeling, and converting complex mesh geometry into manufacturing-ready solid models. I understand your challenge: your tooling designer requires a precise STEP solid model, while your current file is a smoothed mesh created to preserve the organic surface. I can accurately reconstruct the geometry as a clean, watertight solid model while maintaining a tolerance of 0.1 mm from the mesh, ensuring it is suitable for tooling and future modifications. I'm comfortable working with complex freeform shapes, varying wall thicknesses, and confidential projects. I can sign an NDA, review your files, and provide an accurate assessment before starting. I can also complete the work within your required 2–3 day timeframe. I look forward to discussing your project and supporting any future revisions you may need. Best regards, Avatarist
