Hi all,

I have a 3D CAD model of a fuselage (roughly 4ft x 1ft x 2ft) for which I'd like to create a mold. I'm considering using a CNC service like quickparts.com or firstcut.com. My questions are:

1) should I have a CNC-created plug and then make a composite mold myself, or just have a CNC-created female mold?

2) has anyone here used one of these cnc services, and if so would you mind sharing some ballpark costs?
