Working with Dinkum Engineering has been a great experience, despite the initial concern around distance. While being physically closer might have made some aspects easier, the use of tools like Onshape has more than made up for it—allowing us to collaborate visually, exchange feedback efficiently, and stay aligned throughout the process. David’s work is consistently of high quality. He brings not only attention to detail but also a deep understanding of how each component functions, often simplifying designs without compromising their performance. What really sets him apart is his manufacturing mindset—always considering how parts can be built more efficiently and cost-effectively. His communication has been excellent, with prompt responses and a consistently high standard of work delivered quickly. I’ve already recommended Dinkum Engineering to others and fully intend to continue working on future projects together.

Working with David was a great experience from start to finish. His communication was clear, responsive, and collaborative throughout the entire project. He quickly translated ideas into detailed, manufacturable drawings without overcomplicating the design, while always keeping production in mind. Beyond creating high-quality CAD models and drawings, he helped bridge the gap between design and manufacturing by assisting with communication with suppliers and reducing uncertainty throughout the process. The result was a production-ready design that stayed true to the original concept, saved valuable time, and made the transition into manufacturing smooth and straightforward. I would happily work with David again and highly recommend Dinkum Engineering to anyone looking for practical, professional product development support.
