Wesley Behling

As a Mechanical Design Engineer, I am quality conscious and strive for perfection on all projects. I am familiar with drafting standards and have an understanding of machining processes and material properties. This allows me to design projects in a way that I can visualize how all parts need to be fabricated and how everything needs to be assembled.
