Woodwork help

While at the 2008 EAA Airventure, I ran into a gentleman advertising his woodworking services for aircraft restoration and kit building. His forte is 3D CNC router work. What this means is if you have CAD drawings or reliable drawings that can be entered into CAD, he can produce almost everything you require in the way of woodwork.
The man's name is Bill Scheunemann and he has a medium sized shop in Juneau, Wisconsin. He has experience in building parts for restorations of existing wood wing aircraft and there is no reason to think he would have problems with parts for replicas.
Since he did not provide a web site on his card, I did a search for him and found this link that gives you some idea of his capabilities:Precision Aero Marine: Our Facility.
He was emphatic that his routers have feedback in their servo control systems and thus cannot lose steps the way that less expensive stepper motor based control systems can.
Bill's Contact info is as follows:
Telephone (920) 696-3363, Address: W5519 County Road J, Juneau WI 53039. Email is Bill at woodwings.com. Note: (insert the @ sign) in the appropriate location of the foregoing address.
