The Lego Mac made the news recently.

Here is another unique Mac from that wellspring of creative genius that 
is uk.comp.sys.mac

The artist writes:

"Inspired by the idea of Daniele getting over £300 for an obsolete 
laptop
made of a children's toy, I have painstakingly constructed a PowerBook
140 entirely of wood, except for the bits that aren't. Many hours of
design and careful consideration of form, function and aesthetic
"rightness" went into the building of this incredible and unique
computer.

However, rather than following the rather tacky eBay auction route, I
have decided that an artifact of such craftsmanship should only be sold
to a genuine connoisseur, by private tender.

Serious offers only please. Note that this is based on a fully working
PB140, with a very slightly flat battery so's you'd hardly even notice
especially while it's on mains power."
