Welcome to Inkscape Community forum!

Yes, people use Inkscape for CNC router projects. 

I understand the concept, where Inkscape provides the path, which the machine routes (cuts) along.  But I don't know much about the logistics, with g code and all.   In the Extensions Repository (http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ExtensionsRepository), I found....apparently there are 2 different extensions for this....  Or maybe there are 2 entries for the same extension?  I didn't investigate closely, but here are the links: 

I hope those will be helpful :D
