I just finished putting what I think is the last coat of polyurethane on my cafe table. I’ll do a full post about the experience, but here’s some pictures just because I’m excited
They say that the uneven sides make it so you can use it as 3 person table where everyone gets a big side, a 4 person table where someone gets the kinda medium sized side, or a 5 person table if there is someone one each edge. When I looked at the pictures I thought that was a silly idea but in person I can totally imagine it working and think it’s a fantastic design
I love it!! There truly are some wonderful designers at OD!! Would be awesome to get one of the designers to contribute a Maslow build of some sort. Would be great pub for both.
I had one big issue which was that when I went to assemble it it there were two slots which were WAY too big. After some measuring I realized that the design was intended to be cut from 25mm (1inch) plywood and I cut if from 3/4 (18mm). I added some 1/4 inch shims and you can’t tell unless you crawl under the table
Hey, Bar! Thanks for your response. It’s a pleasure and a honor talking to you.
The smaller pieces that holds the feet in the table have a tip in the middle that makes impossible to slot. I don’t know if i’m supposed to cut those in order to make it fit.
Here is the layout to make it clear (this one I got from the flash drive that came in the Makermade kit).
The asymmetry of the top adds a beautiful touch.
…I didn’t save them because I didn’t expect OpenDesk to take their files down.
