I also heard a interview with Ponoko – on Radio Live’s “Public Address Radio” – which is now available as a podcast:

PA Radio: Ponoko.com - If they come, you will build it
Russell Brown interviews David ten Have and Sally Coe of Wellington's ponoko.com, a fascinating start-up that turns ideas into objects…

It's great to see a Kiwi company developing a fascinating concept!
