Have A Good Idea For A Product? Use The Ponoko Design Marketplace

Ponoko provides an all inclusive marketplace for products (typically jewelry, accessory and trinket) designers.
Submit your design to them via their design software, picture of your product from a napkin or through a detailed description on a request form to receive bids from designers who can make what you want.
Their new application, Photomake, can take the product design you scribbled on a piece of paper and use their laser cutters to turn it into 3D.
Everything that is made can be re-sold in their online store, or you can sell them yourself on your own site, with Ponoko fulfilling the shipments. Very cool.
Example pricing. Someone designed a set of coasters that were lasercut and the lowest bidder was $25, so cheap!
