Here is a cool video of a 5 axis industrial milling machine making a replica of a motor cycle helmet out of single piece of aluminium (aluminum for the North Americans). Presumably the hobbyists haven't reached this level yet. Come on, you can just stick the machine in the garage. I know you want one, don't you? ^_^

The above links leads to a lot more videos which are equally interesting. I can't help but feel that, as impressive the machinery is, it's the software that behind the scenes that's making it look easy.
