An interesting project appered in web in year 2003 eMachineShop. Organizers of the project offer to interested persons to make any detail for any destination. It means any detail which is technologically available for manufacture. It may be a detail for a car, plane, tool, motorboat, furniture, engine, musical instrument and so on.

The headquarters of EMS is situated in the city Midland Park in New Jersey, USA. The first two years main clients were in limits of USA. And now they are in America, Canada and Mexico.

For whom orinted this service? Anyone who use proprietary parts. They are used by just about anyone: individuals, corporations, government and the list go on. Unnamed source tells us that some order come from US army.

Of course, founders of the site make nothing by themselves. They are middlemen between orders and producers. During few years were made contacts with many enterprises all over America. Nowadays EMS can produce details from aluminum, steel, copper, bronze, glass, tree plastic arts, rubbers, acrylic, polycarbonate, titanium and so on. That is particularly from any exciting material and their combinations.

The list of possible technological operations impresses too. Besides usual welding, turning and metalworking work there are some exotic one something like plasma arc cutting.

Main groups of orders are:
- Different inventors-doers
- Owners of rare and expensive cars. Of course, a detail lavaliere can be done only to order.
- High schools and colleges. They often order different laboratory equipment.
- Garages and workshops, especially which are specialized on tuning.
- Medical institutions. They usually order hospital equipment.
- Different divisions and workshops/ they order details for their productions.

EMS works with all clients and accepts all orders. The minimal price is $1 for the unit. Maximal is not limited. At the present moment the most expensive detail cost $5.000. There are also orders on the series of typical details and the cost of order may be with many zeros.

For registration of an order from the site you should download the program – it will help you to make a drawing of some detail by yourself. The interface of the program is simple enough and intuitively comprehensible. A necessary detail is drown in the program and the cost of the product displays immediately. The program will not display an impossible detail. In the case of a complex order there are special drawing programs used.
