The always-crafty and industrious Jeffrey and Jillian over at Because We Can have created these really cool CNC-milled puzzle-like wooden robots. They stand 10″ tall and are made from 100% sustainably-harvested American Maple. Finished with water-based dyes and waterborne lacquer. Available in blue, dark brown and blonde. $40 each.
They also sell some pretty awesome wooden CNC-cut Christmas trees for $35 each. Very Dr. Seuss meets Tim Burton, i.e. pure win!
