Simon Hawkenson
Mechanical Design Engineer-In-Training (E.I.T.)

Welcome to my portfolio!

I am a Mechanical Engineer-in-Training (E.I.T.) with a passion for creative problem solving. I love prototyping and all things manufacturing.

I am the type of person who enjoys learning the ins and outs of a technical domain: I enjoy being resourceful.

This is where I publish my personal projects. Use the menu on the left to navigate through these projects.

My Engineering Inspirations:

If my career were a “fantasy sports” team, and I had to pick coworkers and mentors, I’d pick the following: (click arrow to view)

RCTestFlight: Some of the best hydrodynamics/aerodynamics + prototyping demonstrations on youtube, also an RC channel so there are also really interesting integration problems.
BPSSpace: Insanely fascinating aerospace engineering. I can’t get over how much he mastered so many aspects of rocket engineering. I love the iterative approach to each system: the hull (+focus on advanced materials), the fuel, the custom avionics, the software.
Jeremy Fielding: One of the best mechanical design, robotics, and industrial prototyping youtube channels.
StuffMadeHere: Aside from the ridiculous but hilarious projects, I love the combination of traditional machining (CNC, sheet metal) with 3D printing. Along with robotics and computer vision/software.
