    If you are using autocad you can export your model to a *.stl file. I've successfully sent these for prototyping before. The prototypers prefer IGES or STEP format but they can work with the stl files too.

    OK, I did not know that. I'm not anywhere close to being involved with autocad which obviously shows. Thanks for this, it should make things cheaper!
