A friend of mine sent me a link today for Ponoko and I needed to share it right away. This is a site where you can design your own stuff. It is crazy! You make your 2D or 3D design in one of the approved design programs and send it off to Ponoko to get made. They have various materials to choose from and can laser cut too. You can make your own jewelry, puzzles, furniture and more. Some people have already designed some cool things and they are giving away the design files. Then, you can choose your material and buy them.

Also, if you have an idea about a product and you want to make a prototype, this is perfect. I am so impressed with this process.
