Default Internet Machine Shop!

I found an article in this morning Houston Chronicle about an Internet machine shop that I thought some of you would also find interesting and may even have a use for.

The Chronicle has been doing some crazy things lately and may require you to register in order to read this. If you run into that problem and can't read it then I'll post the details here.

I've used their software before and it's quite easy. It's no AutoCad or SolidWorks, but does a pretty good job for the modest requirements of most machined parts. It's a great concept, and I hope it catches on.
