Project Description
I'm looking to develop a prototype for a garage drawer system, intended for a new business venture. The system should be robust and durable, using metal as the primary material.
Essential requirements:
- Functionality: The drawers should operate smoothly and be designed for easy access, even in a cluttered garage environment.
- Durability: Must withstand heavy use and resist wear and tear.
- Aesthetics: While functionality is key, a sleek, modern look is preferred.
- Customization: Ability to adjust drawer sizes and configurations based on user needs.
Ideal skills and experience:
- Experience in metal fabrication and prototype development.
- Strong design skills, particularly in functional yet aesthetic hardware.
- Background in creating modular or customizable systems.
Please include detailed project proposals in your application.
Hi, I’m looking to develop a ceiling-mounted pull-down garage storage system designed around standard 27–31 gallon storage totes. The concept is a gas-assisted overhead drawer that lowers down for easy access without needing a ladder. I attached a concept rendering with target dimensions and functionality. I’m looking for help with CAD design, mechanical engineering, load calculations, motion geometry, and prototype development. Target specs are approximately 48” wide, 30” deep, 20” closed height, 36”–42” lowering distance, and 150 lb storage capacity. Please let me know if this is something you’d be interested in engineering and prototyping.
