Hi, I’m Max, the founder, designer, and civil engineer behind CraftnFix.
By education and profession, I am a civil engineer specializing in transportation construction, highways, and master planning. For years, my daily life has revolved around complex infrastructure, precise blueprints, and rigorous technical standards. However, along the way, I developed a deep passion for landscape architecture, outdoor improvement, and backyard woodworking.
I realized that the same engineering principles used to build roads and bridges could be applied to creating beautiful, durable, and functional outdoor furniture. That is how CraftnFix was born.
The Engineering Approach to DIY Plans
Most DIY blogs rely on blurry photos or shaky video tutorials. As an engineer, I know that when you are in your workshop, you don’t need entertainment — you need clarity, accuracy, and clear dimensions.
Leveraging my professional experience with industry-standard software — including AutoCAD, SketchUp, 3ds Max, Unreal Engine, and CorelDRAW — I decided to take a completely different approach.
At CraftnFix, you won’t find messy real-life build photos. Instead, I translate every project into high-definition 3D assembly models.
Why 3D instead of photos?
- Perfect Angles: 3D rendering allows me to showcase complex joints, hidden screws, and tight fastening points from angles that a physical camera simply cannot reach.
- Zero Guesswork: Every board, gap, and hardware placement is digitally verified for structural integrity before the plans reach your hands.
- Readability: You get clean, color-coded, and distraction-free blueprints that you can easily follow step-by-step.
