Very cool! Much appreciated from this Alienware/Headphone/RGB fanboy.

Thanks! Give it a shot! I'd like to see your results

That's in the works; we're collecting challenge coins to mount in the top then we'll follow with the epoxy coating. I'm not sure of the timing of it but I'll post an update once it's complete.

You're in the right place to build one! :D

Thanks! I'm guessing the slipped screwdriver holes don't count.

Nicely done! My grandparents were German immigrants and we had them all over for Christmas. Have you tried making them with ribbon? The patterns/shine look really sharp.

Thanks! That sounds like a great idea. I'll look forward to seeing your results. :)

It was ~ five inches in diameter once I knocked down the high edges on the lathe.

Nicely done! That and a pillow and I've got the next cat bed!

I don't see why not but I'm far from an expert in CNC operations. You could probably get most of the way there, except for the three crossovers. I'm not sure if you could flip it and run a second pattern on the back but that'd be the other stumbling block. You'll have to try it out and let me know how it goes. :)

We bought ours locally but there's a similar version on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KW2VCBC/... a 'Dori Pouf'... there's my new term for the day. Let me know if you find instructions on making your own; I know they've been a popular subject.

Thanks for the vote/contest as well as the vote of confidence!I appreciate the feedback; I'll see about splitting up the step to make it a little more clear. I realized too late that it was getting rather long and couldn't decide how to fix it.The CM is a cool gadget but I don't think the quality is there. I originally wanted to make a setup to cut my own 7mm blanks but it quickly morphed into recreating the whole thing.

Thanks!

Nicely done! I built a similar ible a few years back but didnt think about securing the table to the end of the bed.

Thanks!

Thanks! I appreciate the vote.

You should go for it! For all the projects I've done, this is a little complicated to get the angles right but its far from being the most difficult thing I've tried.Thanks for checking it out!

I've used both tempered and non-tempered 1/4" for mine; the local shop I use had to special order the tempered and pushed me towards regular plate glass instead when I was working to a deadline. Their issue wasn't so much a difference in strength but if broken, the plate would split clean while the tempered would shatter into bits. I could see the problem with the edges chipping but if your cutting service rounds over the edges or if you wrap it in a frame, that should alleviate the risk.

Nicely done! Perfect excuse for a new desk!Are you sure you needed the full 1/2" glass for the top? I've built a number of tables/desks with 1/4" tops about that size and have yet to break any of them.

Nicely done! I think this was the setup for the Rush Hour board game too; I had a lot of fun with it over the years.

Thank you for the kind words! If not at the present, then I hope it can be inspiring for your own projects in the future. Trust me, if I ever look like I know what I'm doing, it's only because I've made every mistake along the way.

With a real quick look at the parts list, it comes in ~$250 but that depends on the cost of the cherry; I got mine rough cut for ~$7.50/bf.5/4 cherry (top frame, skirts, stretchers): $5012/4 cherry (legs): $401/2" birch plywood (2 shelves): $201/4" glass top: $60 from local glass shophinges: $10 from Lee Valley/VeritasSuede Fabric: 1-2 yards, $10, "Suede 5860" from FabricExchange.comConsumables (stain, poly, screws, caps, glue): $40Good luck! If you have any other questions, please let me know. -M

Nicely done! A strong start and welcome to the party! (we'll be watching your career with great interest)
