! I’m looking for a 3D artist/product designer to help turn my hand-drawn concept into a clean 3D CAD model.

I’m developing a small portable ambient lamp and already have detailed hand sketches showing the overall design, proportions and features.

What I’m looking for:
3D modelling/CAD based on my existing sketches
Keep the original concept and proportions rather than redesigning it
Main lamp + charging dock + floating bath accessory
Clean, editable CAD files
STEP/SolidWorks or similar preferred

Concept-development level for now — this is not production engineering
I’m currently validating the idea, so I’m working with a limited budget and looking for someone reasonably priced. I’d ideally like to work with someone in London/UK, although I’m open to remote if you’re a good fit.

I can provide the sketches and full brief.

Please comment or DM me with:
Examples of similar product/CAD work
Your experience with product design
Your approximate price
Your location

Thanks! Much appreciated

Update: im closing this early as i have wayy too many messages, i wasnt expecting this type of response. Thanks to everyone who messaged so far, i will try my best to get back to all of you but wow i wasnt expecting so many messages.

I’ve realised I really dislike turning on the main bathroom or any main lights especially late at night because it’s so flipping bright and harsh. Same when having a bath, sometimes I want some light and atmosphere without having the whole bathroom lit up. Can’t use a candle because of the fire hazard and my cat can be a lil slow sometimes. I’m researching a product idea around this and I’m curious what people actually do instead.

Do you use:
a night light?
candles?
LED strips?
a small lamp?
nothing?

And if you could design the ideal portable bathroom/ambient light, what would you want it to do?
I’m genuinely trying to understand the problem before developing anything, so I’d love honest opinions including why you wouldn’t use something like this.

25F, looking for a damn job, cant find anything at all. If you are in London and you kniw of anyone hiring fir just about anything, I WILL DO IT, anything apart from planting my private parts on the sidewalk for some spare change. Crazy because i have 5 years experience, worked at a big 4c was a project manager, ive worked retail jobs, i dont care what. I have rent to pay and i cant pay it. I need money. Imma be evicted soon but honestly if i dont find a job id either die first of starvation before eviction can even happen. Help a chick out pls.

Does anyone here commute far to London for work? Like im talking like the people in zone 9 so like Brentwood area. How is it? If you go into the office everyday is it worth the commute or is it better to live closer, is it expensive? Anyways just tell me your experiences, if you would do things differently or if you prefer it

Ive been on reddit for a while but never started posting or interacting until lately. Is reddit strict on dark humor? Thats what i got a warning about but i thought that if anything resdit would be the best place for that. So confused

So i am 25(F) and my now ex is 23(M) broke up last week. I went to india for 10 days and i left in charge of my cat. He went to visit her after the first 3 days of me leaving and he sent me photos of her while he was at my apartment. He then told me he visited her again on the sunday thats followed but i was checking his location because i was quite paranoid because i have never left her for that long and i was worried. His location showed he was at the gym and then 2 hours later he was at home. I asked him if he went to visit her and he said he stopped by briefly. I asked him why he didnt send photos and he said he just popped in and out. I knew he was lying but i didnt want to accuse him of anything. The next day came along and i called him at like 7am in the morning. He was running late for work and as he was getting ready i asked him if he actually went to see my cat. He lied again and said he even went with his friend and that i should call him. I told him to be honest with me and that i obviously wasnt going to call his friend. He said nothing then after a few minutes he came to the phone and said we’ll talk later and immediately hung up. I was halfway across the world balling my eyes out because i was genuinely so scared for my cat. I got my friend to grab my house keys from him at work and when she checked on her that day, she barely had food in her automatic feeder. She was running really low on water. She pooped on the floor which she has never done. Her litter was a disaster that she even pulled the bathroom mat over to cover her litter box. She was drinking water from the toilet because he left the toilet seat up and she was shedding like crazy. I was so devastated that i immediately blocked him on everything.

I returned home from india and refused to leave her side. I texted him the pictures of my cats state that he left her in from when my friend was over asking him to explain himself. He completely ignored my message. Then i sent him a breakup message which he also ignored. I couldn’t believe all of this was happening and i convinced myself that this could not be the man i fell in love with. I texted one of our mutuals and asked if i could meet with him to drop off his stuff that he left in my house. This is where i found out that my bf had told him that he didnt go see her the night he told me he did and that i was just angry because he didnt go for that one day. I was outraged. Absolutely irritated because why are you trying to downplay the situation. Then comepletely lie to me and take no ownership of it. I decided i was going to meet up with him and demand an explanation. At this point i should have let it go. He clearly was the asshole and i should have just let it go and broke things off but i was seeing red. Especially because he calls my cat his daughter and he knows how much she means to me.

He contacted me on where to meet him and i wasnt happy with how far it was so he told me to go home if i dodnt want to meet him where he wanted me to meet him. I told him we are meeting on my terms. He told me to leave him alone. Red. I was seeing red. He came to the location I requested and i immediately start going off. He starts smirking and saying that yeah he lied to me. Im now tjinking oh he thinks this is funny. He asked that since ive broken things off why are we still having a conversation. Red. I was so pissed off. I told him i was going to go to his house. This is where i messed up. He had a strict boundary of his parents or family not finding out about our relationship because they were super strict and he was scared on how they would take it. I knew that. At that point i didnt care. When i said that he panicked. I asked that he deleted all of our photos in which i saw pictures of another girl on his phone. At this point nothing was going through my mind. I was livid. Then he grabbed me and i literally shouted for him to get off me. Even a lady approached to see what was going on. I continued straight to the direction of his house. He tried to snatch my phone from my hand. I was so shocked. I continued straight. He then called the police bare in mind after him telling me hes glad the relationship was over. I told him he never loved or cared about me to be saying things like that. He said that i always sah that when things go wrong. He told the police that i was going to his house and i guess he was hoping they would get there before i did.

He ubered home while i walked. Trying to take this time to calm down and rethink my actions. I could’nt i was too upset. My emotions spiraled out of control. I got to his doorstep and ended up walking back to the curb to call an uber home. I was sobbing while sitting on the curb and then i saw his mom. She took me from the curb and invited me inside. He was there. Told me he came clean about everything to his mom. His mom sat me down in the living room witb his sister. She couldnt speak good English so she had the sister translate. I told her about my cat and how i just wanted him to be honest with me and take responsibility. He said he didnt think how a small white lie could have led to all of this. I didnt think it could either. He left the room and the whole time i was balling my eyes out. His mom clearly wasnt happy that he called the poilce. His sister told me it was a red flag that he didnt want me to meet the family and how even though thats her brother she believes i could do so much better. I explained how i loved him and i wanted to spend my life with him. I told her how id cook for him, make his lunches. Do his cvs and try help him get a better job for a better income. I always stood by him. I got his family stuff from india and i told her how he told me to bin it. His mom was really upset. I explained how this wasnt how i wanted to meet them. I was sobbing while sitting disappointed in myself. I felt so ashamed but they were so comforting. He told me that i ruined his life and there would be no saving the relationship after this. My heart shattered. I automatically started to blame myself. Even while the lom was walking me to the bus stop i was pleading with her not to tell his dad. There were so many things i didnt bring up. I was still trying to protect him. The next day i texted him, i was surprised i wasnt blocked, i apologized for everything. I told him i was disappointed in him cheating but i was willing to look past things. He sent me a long response clearing up the cheating. He did show proof that the pictures were from before we started dating. He emphasized again how the relationship was definitely over and how he did love me and wanted to spend his life with me. He apologized for my cat but he did say that i was filming him like he was crazy. Which i did film because i was worried about my safety in the moments where he grabbed me. I texted him paragraphs for 3 days straight about how we could fix things and how i loved him and how sorry i was. Ofc he never replied. Heartbroken. Then it clicked, i was chasing and defending him again. Why hadnt he blocked me yet? I convinced myself i was in the wrong. Im now completely offline. Deactivated all my social media - apart from reddit and locked myself from the world. I haven’t contacted him since. As each day passes im asking myself, should i try get better, level up in life and then try make things work with him? Did i over react? Was it all really my fault. Could we make things work? I dont know. Im so confused and i dont know what to do. We had been together less than a year and some people might not think thats deep. But it was deep to me. I truely was in love and i think the biggest shock was whoever that man was on that day. That wasnt the man i fell in love with.
