making furniture...

i want to start making some hip furniture for myself. Cool shit, kinda that retro modern look. I dont have any great ideas yet, but i just kinda whipped this up on a whim…

Norm Abram and I both agree :tup:

Too bright for me even though I am part color blind. Not a bad idea!

HAAAAAAAA at the pic

well, the top would be clear, but its hard to see when you render it in inventor, so i gave it a blue hue. the red on the floor… i just picked a color that would make the rest stand out.

looks pretty coo

I think it would be cool with a clear top. Taking orders yet?? You might even make the “dots” spots for drinks through the glass (like built in coasters).

^^^^^^

I did read his post first, I was acknowledging his post and idea.

that is a cool idea.

i would put the 240 together first, but thats a cool idea

i like your general idea… but not feelin that table

so THAT’S where my kidney went

hmm, i can get a sheet of .394 acrylic (plexiglass) for 90 bucks…
i am concerned that it would be too flexible… anyone have a decent handle on how stiff this shit is? for reference, the dims of the table are roughly 3 X 5

Acrylic loves to scratch.

that is not a cool idea…that a brilliant idea

yeah, but i cant afford to make it out of glass… that would be like 400 bucks… or more.

Make your own glass duh.

or at least hook up my harness so i can sell it…:lol:
