I`m a qualified mechanical engineer, currently finishing my Masters degree.  
Although I have some experience in solid modelling, I`m not that familiar with 
injection molding. As my primary interests are in simulation and optimization. 
Non the less, I would happily help out where I can with the mechanical aspects 
of the design.

As far as coding goes, I`m a farely experienced python programming 
implementing all my own code in python. As far as the lower level languages go 
I still have to get around to learning them.

The only free CAD/CAE software i`ve really used is Salome, which is also based 
on openCASCADE.
