Find U.S. Manufacturers in Seconds – CNC, sheet metal, molding, etc.

Hell yeah! I have been looking for something like this.

On the home page when I search for something like `Southeast` it shows 0 shops, but if I actually select it I get 223. This was confusing and made me unsure of how many relevant hits I would find.

It would be really nice if you could search in smaller geographic areas. State boundaries would be really nice to start. As you continue having city / intra-state regions would also be huge for the cases where you want to go in person to these places.

Some of the geographic regions like `southwest` don't map to what I consider south west. Louisiana, isn't in the south west :)

Thanks much - we definitely need to add city and state filtering...it's been requested a bunch of times :-)

Please let us know if you see anything that could be better

I looked at it more last night. It would be great if you expanded into other forms of manufacturing and related services.

For example, if I am having a complex part machined, I probably need some electronics to drive that things. Having a supplier for electronic parts, circuit board printing, plastic molding for housing those electronics would be needed to finish the job.
