I don't think the legs fold.

BigV 04-21-2017 10:09 AM

Maybe not. The rest of it sure looks like it bundles itself up though. And the legs do look kinda strappy.

Happy Monkey 04-21-2017 10:26 AM

I think it converts between a sideboard and a desk. I doubt the legs fold.

footfootfoot 04-21-2017 02:42 PM

The legs are gusseted front to back but the only lateral bracing seems to be the sides. There still looks like a tremendous amount of leverage where the leg meets the chest.

I would like to see the thing in action. I suspect a lot of flexing if not wobbling.


OH SNAP! THIS JUST IN:

Video at bottom of page where he explains his plagiarism. Sort of.

xoxoxoBruce 04-22-2017 12:00 AM

He got fucked, but his legs don't fold like the Brit's.

Kind of rustic, kind of modern, kind of weird.

There are doghouses and accommodations for your best friend...

BigV 04-24-2017 10:40 PM

Damn! That's nice! I could do that.

I might....

footfootfoot 04-25-2017 09:31 AM

I bet the guy that built that has forgotten his wife's birthday more than once.

BigV 04-25-2017 09:59 AM

Whoops.

Thanks for the reminder!

Your baby wants a chandelier? Just dig a room under a bigassed tree and hang christmas lights on the roots... easy peasy.

BigV 04-29-2017 04:18 PM

That is truly lovely. I don't have a likely location for such an application, but I appreciate the effort.

A trick chair, see it in action.

Happy Monkey 05-02-2017 11:02 AM

Nifty concept. Would definitely need to try before buying, though.

xoxoxoBruce 05-03-2017 03:18 AM

That's the bad news, you'd have to spend a lot of time and money building it to find out if you like. :lol: For me, yeah looks cool, but I have enough trouble getting out of chairs without that shit.

glatt 05-03-2017 07:43 AM

The guy in the video never actually looked comfortable.

Gravdigr 05-03-2017 12:40 PM

He qualified that by stating that he was 6'4".

xoxoxoBruce 05-03-2017 10:23 PM

Yeah yeah, I used to tell them all 6", but you know...

Even a novice with a little common sense, should know if you're making a huge wooden wrench, it's not a good idea to used the weakest part of the wood for the jaws. Yeah yeah, it's just for display, but it's tacky and even non-woodworkers will spot it.

Looks nice, but not very comfortable for long because of the shape of the back.

Happy Monkey 05-06-2017 01:26 AM

You're meant to be leaning forward, and to your right.

BigV 05-06-2017 11:40 AM

you know how footfootfoot reminded us that when you make a boat longer, the additional expense doesn't come from the thin pointy part at the end, but from the fat part in the middle? looks like this guy got a discount on his dugout.

"Zero per stool" refers to zero waste wood. I'm sure his trash is full of stuff use to prepare and apply the epoxy.

Griff 05-07-2017 09:07 AM

This table would give you impetus to suck in that gut.

When you're entertaining this table will give you a hand.

Giant mime in glass coffin measuring his three-inch-punch.

xoxoxoBruce 05-12-2017 12:03 PM

I feel his pain, I have a three inch... nevermind:o

Gravdigr 05-13-2017 02:37 PM

Looks like an award for particularly good waitstaff...






Waitstaff. That was in tribute to Sundae. She used that word often.:)

I use waitstaff all the time now.

Don't like arms that slope down. :headshake

This doesn't look that comfy either, but at least you can see the clawed denizens creeping up on you.

BigV 05-16-2017 07:30 PM

But well ventilated.

A G or PG three way...

Happy Monkey 05-18-2017 09:33 AM

Clever.

Gravdigr 05-18-2017 03:10 PM

A lot of thought went into that.

glatt 05-18-2017 03:17 PM

In my house, the edges would get all dirty from the floor, so in table mode there would be grime all over the tops of the side rails. I guess I would just wipe that off though.

It's smrt.

I love it, simple design and superb craftsmanship. What's not to love?

glatt 05-21-2017 11:39 AM

It's very well made but I'm ambivalent about the style. Arts and Crafts never did much for me. I like colonial or shaker styles more.

Much better use than getting all sweaty and dirty in the hot, sun-beaten, bug infested wilds.

Flint 05-23-2017 12:43 PM

That Jeep kitchen is one of the worst things I have ever seen. Bad idea, bad execution, just garbage. :2cents:

Gravdigr 05-23-2017 02:23 PM

Must have been a politician's idea.

xoxoxoBruce 05-23-2017 05:14 PM

I don't think it's a kitchen, more like a man cave bar.

A bar that you can't sit at.

captainhook455 05-24-2017 06:53 PM

Shoulda been a motorcycle bar.

Details for an old Chinese trunk.

Wow. Thats really special. I LOVE old wooden creations, small or large.

Lot of work in this wood, probably just the carving would take you two or three weekends. ;)

When I saw this picture I was more interested in the pipe sculptures I first thought were scaffolding stacks.

The Chinese had such cool shit for the rich. Simple clean lines that take a shitload of work to execute.

In these days of digital effects and printed plastics not many people realise the work and skill required to make something like this table.

Anybody can gussy up their stairs. It can be simple or complex, and most any material. Hell, you can make it into a real waterfall... but I wouldn't recommend that. ;)

Where's the glass? The lighter triangles? The doors don't appear to be glazed.

xoxoxoBruce 06-10-2017 11:53 AM

I believe the glass is behind the spindles.
