Design & Fabrication — Wake Forest, NC
Not just a guy with a shop. Formal education, industry certifications, OEM factory training, and federal safety credentials — backed by 15+ years of hands-on experience in machining, fabrication, and engineering.
Business strategy, operations management, financial analysis, and leadership. Understands project economics, supply chain decisions, and how to scope and bid work professionally.
Two-year skilled trades program covering precision machining, fixture design, GD&T, tool steel heat treatment, and die construction. The hands-on technical foundation everything else is built on.
Business formation, market analysis, and product development. The foundation for running Dynasty Machine Works as a real business, not just a side hustle with a welder.
Comprehensive safety training covering hazard identification, PPE, machine guarding, electrical safety, and OSHA compliance for manufacturing and industrial environments. Required for safety leadership roles in most facilities.
Industry-standard certification proving proficiency in 3D parametric modeling, assemblies, and drawings. Your parts get designed in real CAD with proper tolerances and manufacturing intent — not napkin sketches.
Qualified to develop and manage laser safety programs for Class 3B and Class 4 laser systems. Includes nominal hazard zone calculations, PPE selection, engineering controls, and operator training program development.
Manufacturing Extension Safety & Health certificate. Workplace safety program development and implementation for manufacturing environments.
Foundation-level OSHA safety awareness training covering worker rights, hazard recognition, and basic compliance requirements for general industry workplaces.
Authorized to notarize documents in the State of North Carolina.
Courses completed through the OSHA Training Institute Education Center — the same curriculum OSHA uses to train its own compliance officers.
The full scope of 29 CFR 1910 general industry standards — walking/working surfaces, electrical, machine guarding, hazardous materials, fire protection, PPE. Prerequisite for becoming an authorized OSHA Outreach Trainer. The person running your safety program actually knows the federal standards inside and out.
Respiratory protection program development and management per 29 CFR 1910.134. Respirator selection, fit testing, medical evaluation requirements, and program administration. Critical for any environment with airborne contaminants — welding fumes, grinding dust, chemical exposure.
Electrical safety standards for general industry — wiring, grounding, overcurrent protection, and safe work practices per NFPA 70E and 29 CFR 1910 Subpart S. Directly applicable to machine installation, panel work, and equipment commissioning.
Energy control procedures per 29 CFR 1910.147. How to safely de-energize equipment for maintenance and servicing — electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, thermal. Essential for anyone working on or around industrial machinery.
Safety management system fundamentals — how to build, implement, and sustain a workplace safety program. Management leadership, worker participation, hazard assessment, training, and program evaluation.
All three courses completed on Arburg's all-electric ALLROUNDER platform — the premium servo-driven machines used in medical device, precision electronics, and cleanroom manufacturing. Not hydraulic machines.
Mold installation, clamping unit setup, servo-driven injection unit configuration, and process parameter optimization across different plastic materials. The person who can take a new or transferred mold, install it in an all-electric press, dial in the process parameters, and get consistent, high-quality parts running — the kind of work you see in medical device, precision electronics, and optical component manufacturing.
Service and maintenance specific to all-electric servo-driven injection molding machines. Servo motor diagnostics, drive controller troubleshooting, ball screw and planetary roller screw inspection, machine sequence analysis, and preventive maintenance. All-electric machines replace hydraulics with precision servo drives — different failure modes, different diagnostic approach, higher stakes.
Materials science and processing fundamentals for injection molding. Thermoplastic and thermoset material properties, flow behavior, shrinkage, processing parameters, and how material selection affects part quality. The knowledge behind choosing the right resin for a part and knowing why it's warping, sinking, or flashing.
Hands-on welding course covering all three major arc welding processes. Weld joint prep, fit-up, multi-pass techniques, and destructive testing of completed welds. Practical shop skills, not classroom theory.
Electrical safety, incident energy calculations, PPE category selection, and safe work practices for energized electrical equipment per NFPA 70E.
