If you want to rapidly iterate on a design this simply isn't going to work. Waiting a day between versions greatly limits the usefulness of this service.

It's all about perspective. 1day turnaround is very slow for software but extremely fast for hardware. In the harware world, high-quality parts turnaround in 1 day is revolutionary.

If you need to rapidly iterate that badly, then you're probably going to buy a 3d printer for your business. Not everyone requires this.
