We need a 2D AutoCAD DXF drawing converted into accurate 3D solid models and exported as STL files.


The assembly consists of three parts:

  1. Handle — the operable lever
  2. Base — the mounting base that the handle turns within
  3. Keeper — the receiving/catch component


What we're providing:


  • A 2D DXF file (AutoCAD 2018 format) (PDF ATTACHED) covering all three parts, including profile geometry and dimension annotations
  • Reference photos attached of the finished physical assembly for visual confirmation (curves, features, and proportions)


What we need:


  • True 3D solid models built from the DXF profiles and dimensions (not flat extrusions — these parts have real depth, curvature, and features visible in the photos that go beyond the 2D outlines)
  • Two delivery formats:
    1. Assembled version: Handle + Base combined into one STL, plus the Keeper as a separate STL (2 files total)
    2. Fully separated version: Handle, Base, and Keeper each as their own individual STL file (3 files total)

  • We'd also appreciate the native 3D CAD files (STEP, SLDPRT, or F3D) if your software produces them, in addition to the STLs


Ideal candidate:


  • Experienced with SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or similar parametric CAD software
  • Comfortable interpreting 2D drafting/dimension conventions and translating them into functional 3D geometry
  • Able to reference photos to infer real-world features (fillets, draft, wall thickness, cam profile geometry) not fully captured in the 2D drawing
  • Prior experience with hardware/mechanical parts, door/window hardware, or similar cam/lever mechanisms is a plus


Process:


  1. We share the DXF and reference photos
  2. You confirm scale/units and flag any ambiguous dimensions or features before modeling
  3. You deliver a 3D model + STL for our review
  4. One round of revisions included to true up any dimensional discrepancies


Turnaround: Please indicate your estimated turnaround time in your proposal.


To apply, please include:


  • 2–3 examples of similar 2D-to-3D conversion work (mechanical parts preferred)
  • Your proposed rate/timeline
  • Confirmation of the CAD software you'll use for the native file
