Gulliver’s Gate (Spring 2017)

Gulliver's Gate is a 1:87 scale model of the world that was built as a permanent attraction in Times Square. I worked as a Mechanical Engineer contractor to create some of electromechanical and structural systems that are used to actuate various elements of the exhibit such as planes and trains.

-Created mechanical designs in Solidworks for CNC machined, sheet metal, and 3D printed components and performed engineering calculations to select COTS parts including raw materials, motors, timing belts, and pulleys.
-Utilized 3D printers, hand tools, and machine shop tools such as drill press and laser cutter to fabricate components by hand.
-Coordinated with electrical team to integrate all final systems.
