Hello

I'm Ian Rutherford, a design and development engineer, patternmaker, machinist, and lifelong car guy with a focus on turning ideas into real, functional parts. Whether it's retrofitting fuel injection onto a vintage straight-six or casting intake manifolds from scratch, I specialize in blending traditional techniques with modern tools like CAD, CNC machining, and 3D modeling. My work is driven by curiosity, craftsmanship, and a need to build things that not only look right but run right. This site showcases the projects I've designed, prototyped, and refined—each one shaped by equal parts engineering and obsession.
