Great article with our MAKE pals, Squid Labs -The concept is simple: Boot up your computer and design whatever object you can imagine, press a button to send the CAD file to Lewis' headquarters in New Jersey, and two or three weeks later he'll FedEx you the physical object. Lewis launched eMachineShop a year and a half ago, and customers are using his service to create engine-block parts for hot rods, gears for home-brew robots, telescope mounts - even special soles for tap dance shoes.

I find that Team Whyachi offers better prices than eMachineShop, even though they don't have the fancy CAD interface. And the quality is quite good.
