  That’s part of what I do.

      I don’t… think so?

      Im sort of an emergency draftsman. Someone sends in some piece of machinery that is broken/worn out. Said machine is taken apart. Any parts that need to be replaced are dropped on my desk (if they are small enough) and im asked to figure out what this scrap metal used to look like, so I can make a 3D model and drawing of it. That drawing is given to someone who actually knows what they are doing, and they will replicate the part.

      This leaves me with random downtime, I have used that time the last year or so to study and get my drone license.

      And that’s the cool part. I’m a drone pilot. Ten year old me is looking on with approval.

        You know CAD and are a drone pilot? Don’t let surveyors find out.
