We asked three questions:
Where do your Ponoko ideas come from?
I try to keep my mind open and look what's happening around me.
What do you/don't you like about Ponoko?
It's hard to suggest how the future of manufacturing will look like, but I think Ponoko is a step in the right direction. Somehow it's a pity Ponoko is limited to 2d-cutting, but on the other hand this limitation can also boost your creative process.
What are you favorite materials?
I'm quite interested in digital fabrication. For laser cut parts my favorite material is acrylic. I also like the unfinished surface of laser-sintered parts a lot. Anyway it's always an inspiring challenge to get the best out of each materials properties.
