A hobby machine can do dollhouse doors.A CNC mill does a couple of things like cutting grooves in MDF to make a door look like it was assembled. That can just as easily be done manually but if you have a lot to make, it's boring. CNC reduces the boredom.
However CNC can carve curved shapes that would be very difficult to do manually. Three axis is even better.
I don't see production stuff in my future but weird parts maybe.
You need a really big machine to do cabinet doors -- it would be impossible to justify the cost unless you're going into business with the machine.
