3D SCANNING
& REVERSE ENGINEERING
Capture surface geometry, clean meshes, identify datums, and reconstruct editable CAD. Small components through vehicle-scale studies.
HMM / V01 — VANCOUVER ISLAND, BC
SCAN IT.
MODEL IT.
MAKE IT.
From a physical object to an editable model. From an idea to a tested part. Building the workshop that closes the gap between what exists and what needs to exist.
Precision first. Scale second. Proof before promises.

THE REAL WORLD.
One connected workflow, rather than a collection of disconnected machines. These are the capabilities being developed, not a list of currently bookable services.

MODELLING
Models, exploded assemblies, production drawings, fit checks, revision records and fabrication-ready geometry.
03 / ITERATE
PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT
3D PRINTING
& PROTOTYPING
Fit-test parts, fixtures, masters, sectional patterns and modular tooling. Print only when machine and material are validated.

FUTURE WORKSHOP PHASE
COMPOSITE TOOLING
& LARGE FORMS
Segmented body bucks, marine masters, molds, carbon/Kevlar/fiberglass layup workflows and inspected assemblies.

FUTURE WORKSHOP PHASE
CNC & MATERIAL
PROCESSING
Planned sheet/profile production in suitable metals and plastics, with material-specific extraction, guarding and QA.

PROVE IT
ON OUR OWN.
The first jobs belong inside the HUNTER ecosystem. Each program earns a place in the portfolio only after a physical test and documented results.

BODY BUCKS
Segmented 3D-printed vehicle forms developed as masters for future composite tooling. Validate geometry, joints and finish before full scale.

REPRODUCTION
Recreate obsolete interior, console and trim geometry with reversible fit and clear material requirements. Begin with non-structural parts.

FIT-TEST
JIGS & FIXTURES
Small, non-safety-critical brackets and alignment tools. The fastest path to repeatable digital files, measurable tolerances and real cost data.
INTERNAL TEST PIECES
*Illustrations are original concept graphics, not photographs of completed parts. No prototypes, test results or installed equipment are claimed here.
03 / METHOD OVER MACHINESTHE SYSTEM
THE SYSTEM
IS THE PRODUCT.
A part isn't done when it looks right. It is done when dimensions, fit, materials, revision history and production decisions can all be explained.
01
CAPTURE
Define the purpose, coordinate system, reference dimensions and source-object permissions.
OUTPUT / MEASUREMENT BRIEF02
MODEL
Build editable CAD from geometry and function. Mark assumptions explicitly.
OUTPUT / REVISIONED CAD03
PROTOTYPE
Produce a low-risk test article when the equipment, material and environment are ready.
OUTPUT / TEST PIECE04
VERIFY
Measure, fit, photograph, cost and record any failures before repeating or scaling.

Organize actual projects, drawings, measurements, materials and revision records. Prove the digital process with free tools already accessible.
WORKFLOWFreeCAD / Blender / OpenSCAD / Mesh tooling

physical proof.
Evaluate a suitable enclosed desktop FDM printer such as a Bambu model only when ventilation, materials, costs and approvals make sense.
HARDWAREPrinter, material storage, exposure controls, measuring tools
FIRST OUTPUTNon-structural jigs, fixtures and fit-test patterns
STARTING POINTUnapproved; separate written budget required
EXIT CRITERION3 repeatable physical tests with recorded actual costs
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTRecreate geometry
Recreate geometry
at every scale.
Compare small-detail, medium-body and large-scene metrology requirements before choosing Artec or other scanning systems.
HARDWAREScanner by job scale; reference targets; calibration artifacts
FIRST OUTPUTMesh-to-CAD reconstruction with controlled deviation
