focus stacking. need hints and examples

Now that I've purchased the CamRanger, I want to try focus stacking. But other than flowers, I can't think of any subjects that would be worthwhile to use this technique. Can anyone help?

Perhaps post some examples?

Thank you.

I took a shot of this tiny token at an angle with a macro lens. Even stopped down the depth of field was shallow. Then I took several shots and focused stacked them in photoshop.

gj. (btw, it looks to me that there are some sections it looks like photoshop screwed up (it chose oof frames instead of the correctly focused version). that's usually what happens with me--after photoshop does its auto merging i usually have to go back and fix its mistakes.)

What is the magnification of your rig? This is what you can do with super-macro (around 5:1) + ~100 of stacked photos:

Here's a thread about my one focus stacking "project", 5 layers of a little spider, and it came out pretty good:
