TechShop San Francisco?

Is there something similar to TechShop in San Francisco?
I occasionally build DIY audio projects that require some degree of casework. Usually I end up mangling a Hammond enclosure with a handheld power drill until I get the holes that I need. It gets the job done, but the results aren't really all that pretty. The next couple projects I want to build are a little more ambitious than what I've done in the past and the casework involved is a bit more complicated than what I think I can accomplish with the tools I have at hand. Ideally, I'd like to find an open-access machine shop here in San Francisco like TechShop. Does such a thing exist? I know Menlo Park isn't really all that far away, but I'd prefer something local.
