John Romeo
Fabrication Drawing Specialist & Technical Designer > Denton, Texas | Remote & Regional On-Site Contract Overhire
With a career spanning over four decades in design, fabrication, and technical instruction, I deliver execution-ready 3D digital prototypes and precision shop drawings that seamlessly bridge the gap between initial concept and the shop floor.
Core Capabilities & Platform Mastery
* Production & Shop Drawings: Advanced layout sheets for Architectural Millwork, Commercial Exhibits, Corporate Events, Film, and Theatre. * 3D Modeling & Digital Prototyping: Utilizing AutoCAD, Vectorworks, Rhino, and SketchUp to build comprehensive, clash-detected digital mockups before material hits the shop floor. * Fabrication Authority: Former scenery studio owner and fine woodworker with decades of hands-on build experience. I draft with the intelligence of someone who knows how materials actually behave in a tool matrix.
