Default Online Machine Shop

Just found this cool website:

eMachineShop

On this site you download some design software which lets you design the part you want machined, you choose the material, what bends you want, what holes you want tapped, etc. Then you submit the design, they give you a quote and then if you order they send you the finish article.

Not sure how viable the cost would be for a single part but it's pretty cool none the less.

Pretty good idea as long as you can operate the cad well enough and depending on what you want making as its not that straight forward sometimes.

If you need anything making and want it quoted i have access to a full CNC machineshop with 5 axis machining centers, lathes and wire eroding.
