For years I ditched CD cases, but, interestingly, I eventually found some use for them in the last two days. I start regretting the many I should have kept...

| CD case as material for an engraved logo. I really did not expect it to produce such a nice result. Light coming from aside gets scattered by the scratches (I should try adding SMT leds sideways). The trick was to move quickly, to avoid melting the polycarbonate. |
 |
| And used as for the bottom protection of a Smoothieboard (which drives the aforementioned CNC mill) CD cases do break too easily, but they are very convenient as they leave the signal names clearly readable. |
