After your initial inquiry, I clarify the task, evaluate complexity, deadlines, and cost.
If needed, I ask additional questions to define the scope precisely.

Flexible workflow and transparent terms

We agree on the scope, timeline, and payment format in a simple written confirmation (email or brief).
A formal service agreement can be provided if your company requires it.

3D model for approving all details

I create a 3D model with visualizations, accurate dimensions, and detailing.
We discuss construction solutions, materials, fittings, and I apply adjustments if needed.

Full production documentation package

I prepare the complete set: drawings, specifications, assembly diagrams, and CNC/laser files.
Delivered in PDF and the required technical formats (DWG, DXF, STEP, etc.).

Detailed project workflow (PDF)

The stages, roles, timelines, and formats are clearly explained.
Convenient for both the client and the contractor.

About me

My name is Evgenii Kuzmenko.

I am a furniture design engineer with over 5 years of experience, specializing in custom and built-in furniture design.

I started with my own production workshop in 2017, and since 2019 I have been working fully independently, focusing on engineering and technical design.

Having worked both in manufacturing and as an independent designer, I understand the entire process — from concept to a ready-to-assemble product.

My expertise:

Parametric modeling (Shapr3D, Fusion 360)
Preparing models for CNC and sheet-cutting production
Assembly control using technical drawings and 3D models

What sets me apart

Engineering precision and a deep understanding of real production processes. I design so that the product can be manufactured and assembled correctly on the first try.

Professional achievements

Shapr3D Community Recognition Between 2024 and 2026, I was ranked among the top 10 contributors to the Shapr3D Gamma Community on six occasions (Q3 and Q4 2024; Q2, Q3 and Q4 2025; Q3 2026). I have also been repeatedly selected to join exclusive groups of Shapr3D designers testing new features before their official release.

More than five of my proposed improvements have subsequently been implemented in Shapr3D.

Features Implemented in Shapr3D After My Suggestions

Implementation: Section View Interference Highlights in Shapr3D. The development team added automatic highlighting of overlapping bodies during section views, improving error detection before manufacturing

Suggestion: Automatic Intersection Check

Evgeny Kuzmenko suggested an improvement to the “intersection” function in Shapr3D — to automatically highlight intersecting bodies without manual selection. This would help users detect modeling mistakes faster and ensure error-free assemblies.

Update: Section View Interference Highlights

The new Shapr3D update automatically highlights overlapping bodies in Section View, based on Evgeny Kuzmenko’s proposal. It makes error detection easier during design reviews and reduces the risk of costly mistakes before manufacturing.

Evgeny Kuzmenko suggests displaying body separation lines in Shapr3D section view for better clarity

Suggestion: Display of Lines in Section View

Evgeny Kuzmenko proposed an enhancement to Shapr3D’s “cut” function — to display edge lines between adjacent bodies in section view. This would help users distinguish different parts more clearly when modeling multi-body assemblies.

Shapr3D update with color-aware section fills and hatching based on user feedback from Evgeny Kuzmenko

Update: Color-Aware Section Fills in Shapr3D

The new section view update in Shapr3D introduced color-aware fills and angled hatching, based on Evgeny Kuzmenko’s earlier suggestion. It improves readability by visually distinguishing different bodies in multi-part designs.

Evgeny Kuzmenko suggests adding true 3D point-to-point measurements in Shapr3D modeling space

Suggestion: Improved Measurement in 3D Space

Evgeny Kuzmenko shared a limitation of the previous measurement tool — it couldn’t measure the full 3D distance between points not aligned by face or axis. As a workaround, he had to use construction lines in sketches. He proposed adding true 3D point-to-point measurements directly in modeling space.

Shapr3D introduces updated 3D measurement tool with axis projections, based on user feedback

Update: 3D Measurement Tool with Axis Projections

The updated measurement tool in Shapr3D introduced point-to-point distance measurement with X, Y, and Z projections. This aligns with the use case previously described by Evgeny Kuzmenko and improves precision for spatial analysis in complex models.

Evgeny Kuzmenko suggests adding last modified date under project thumbnails in Shapr3D

Suggestion: Displaying the Last Modified Date of a Project

Evgeny Kuzmenko proposed improving project management in Shapr3D by displaying the last modified date directly under each project thumbnail — similar to how video uploads show dates on YouTube. The screenshot illustrates the suggested UI enhancement for better tracking of updates.

Shapr3D interface updated to display last modified timestamps on recent project thumbnails

Update: Last Modified Timestamps in Recent Projects

Shapr3D introduced visible last modified timestamps in the Recent Projects panel, fulfilling a long-standing UX request from active users. The update enables users to quickly track and manage project changes at a glance — as originally suggested by Evgeny Kuzmenko.

Shapr3D interface screenshot showing a suggestion to import geometry directly from existing projects with a 3D cabinet model displayed

Suggestion: Direct Import from Existing Shapr3D Projects

Evgeny Kuzmenko suggested adding the ability to import geometry directly from existing Shapr3D projects into the current workspace — without exporting and re-importing files. This streamlines workflows that rely on reusable modules and recurring components.

Implementation: Direct Project Imports in Shapr3D

The Shapr3D team introduced a new feature that allows importing other Shapr3D projects directly into the workspace — with no intermediate export. This improvement makes it easier to reuse finished parts and assemblies, accelerating complex design workflows.

Invitation from Shapr3D team to Evgeny Kuzmenko to join Offset constraint closed beta test

Invitation to a Closed Beta Test of a New Feature

Evgeny Kuzmenko received a personal invitation from the Shapr3D team to participate in a closed beta test of the Offset constraint for Sketches. The message outlines key notes on using the Beta app, such as workspace separation, manual migration, and potential limitations. Participation includes joining a private discussion space for reporting issues and sharing feedback with developers.

Thank-you letter and Shapr3D-branded notebook received by Evgeny Kuzmenko for contribution to Gamma Community

Gift and Letter from the Shapr3D Team
