This might open up a large world for proppers to get parts less expensive and faster that conventional runs.

There's also a guy on Ebay that does Rapid Prototyping from 3D Models:

Anyone tried this or considering it?

I'd like to know if it's worth it.

We need someone who knows how to use CAD to whip up something simple to see a price quote. That way we could get an idea how expensive their service is. It sounds promising though.

I wonder who could do that?

I tried this for a waterjet cutting project (run of 30 buckles in aluminum). For my project it was cheaper to take the project to a brick and motor shop. But it was cost competitive and would be good if you don't have a shop in your area.
