Hadn't heard of Fabworks until today. Testing out a quote on some parts I was looking at getting from OSH Cut, they're actually much better on pricing _and_ have more capabilities. (!)

Have you used them a lot? Curious what your experience with them is if you're willing to share.

I’ve not personally used them, but the company was founded and is ran by the mentors of a high school robotics team. I volunteer with the program, so I’m familiar with the team.

I have made several quotes for different personal projects, but those projects have all been tabled for the moment.

Here’s the announcement post on the main social forum for the robotics program: https://www.chiefdelphi.com/t/introducing-fabworks-fast-affo...
