My daughter just got glasses and wanted to have a cool stand to put them on at night. I modeled up a penguin in Fusion 360, sliced it in 123d Make and cut it on my CNC machine.
It would have been way easier to laser cut this and now my other 2 kids are wanting to do similar. I may just have to hold them off long enough to get my Glowforge 
If you want specifics on this project I have instructions posted on Instructables.
