If you can provide a 3d model of it, it wouldn't be hard to machine on my equipment.

I do have other stuff to be doing, though. Spend like 20 minutes in Fusion 360 creating a 3d model of both parts.

OP, the serious answer is something with significant complexity that is hard for other people to copy with little effort.

Things like Sine plates and other precision toolmaking tools are high value items if they are accurate and well-made.

1-2-3 blocks are cheap and much more simple.

having a CNC machine at your disposal means you will spend less time cranking handles and changing tools, automation is like having an employee in the shop with you, that's one way to get ahead trying to start from basically nothing.

Another thing is, if you're like me, you're lazy. Automation is how you will easily make 1,000s of a complicated product with minimal effort and the chance of it all being worth nothing at the end. Automation helps lazy people like me make up for not wanting to spend hundreds of man-hours cranking handles and eating chips and smoke.

Manual stuff is great for repairs and one-offs though, squaring up stock too.
