Until now, you had
to buy and learn expensive and complex CAD software, make technical
drawings, locate a machine shop , find a way to transmit the drawings
to the machine shop, discuss the design with an accomplished
machinist, sift through numerous price quotations, and eventually get
your part - often paying much more than necessary while adding weeks
of delay.
