What have you made with your CNC machine

Hello All,
I am in the process of making my first CNC router. WHile investigating this i started to wonder what everyone else has done with their CNC machine. So, would anyone like to share some information on what they have made with their CNC router/mill/lathe/???
Thanks

I make skate frames.


They are cut from solid 6061 (1.5"x3"x17"). The final result is 245g with walls that are 3mm thick. The design is special because it has a brake system built into the race skate frame.

The funny thing is a few years ago I had this as an idea and in a sense it was the idea that got me started with the CNC bug.

It's the first part I ever made and it was A LOT of work but it was also a lot of fun.
