Anyone that has ever done any type of product development will know that one of the biggest challenges is finding the right manufacturer. Aside from the challenge of finding the right company, is finding a company that will produce what you want, how you want it without paying a ridiculous amount of money. After all that what if your product is a flop? All that money and sweat has now been translated into a learning experience. Why not create a design, have a company produce it and ship it and split the profit? That is kind of the idea behind Ponoko.com. This is great if you want to avoid the headache of all the nonsense. I haven't messed with the site too much but its a great idea. Will definitely give it a shot.
