Default C5 logo and 'Jake' school project

Check out what my 15 year old son made me! I showed him the C5 logo and told him about 'Jake'. So he looked up the images online and had to re-draw them completely to eliminate the jagged edges. Then used the CNC machine at school to cut it out. A bunch of filing later and black paint on the Jake - turned out great!
*Keys are there as a reference for size*

I asked him to make me the biggest C5 logo that will fit on the CNC so we'll see how that turns out!

Your son did a great job on those things - he's got some talent using the machine.
