Bort - 2012-11-05 Yeah, watching this, all I could imagine was a voice over a speaker instructing her: "Now expand the table. Now collapse it again. Now expand it ... collapse it ... expaaUUUUUGNHHH! Okay, you may go now."

,000-,000, depending on options. There's a motorized remote control version. A DB Fletcher tech will fly from the UK to assemble your table upon delivery.

Old_Zircon - 2012-11-04 Why am I putting so much effort into learning luthiery when furniture that takes less work to build can easily sell for five times what I'd expect to get for a good solid guitar?
This thing is awesome and the wood and workmanship look really nice but I'd have guessed -k tops.
|
memedumpster - 2012-11-04 Holy shit, no way. Just no. I love this table, but it isn't worth more than 00 tops. What a ridiculously arrogant furniture company, it's a fucking table.
|
godot - 2012-11-04 On the DB Fletcher website, this table is generally shown mounted on the deck of 150 ft (or larger) yachts, with all stainless hardware and teak/mahogany wood. k is chicken feed compared to the price of the other yacht fittings. This table is not for your McMansion.

memedumpster - 2012-11-05 Rich people have no concept of value and are easy prey for craftsmen.
|
Old_Zircon - 2012-11-05 What memedumpster said, but even with that in mind I'd guess way less than what it's going for. Assuming it's mostly handmade (truly hand made I mean, with hand tools) k wouldn't be out of the realm of normal. If that's solid wood and not veneer, the materials alone probably cost more than 00.
|
Old_Zircon - 2012-11-05 I mean, I think real craftsmanship is actually about the most valuable thing there is in an object, and I still think this thing isn't worth nearly as much as it costs.
The customers for this are like the rich people who pay -40k for a 1950s Fender, they're paying for an idea because there is nothing about the craftsmanship or materials that come close to justifying the price.

That poor lady. OCD must be a motherfucker.

Also, I wouldn't kid myself - I know once I put a table somewhere, it's only going to stay in one position until I die or have to move again or a good tornado comes and takes it all away.

That would be a badass prop in a fantasy movie.

MacGyver Style Bomb - 2012-11-04
Does remind me of the custom gaming tables sold at conventions.
|
SteamPoweredKleenex - 2012-11-04 Yeah, but they just have hidden compartments.
Also, looking at those, I'd almost think it'd be cooler/cheaper to just retrofit a used craps or roulette table.

That's fucking awesome, but not ,000 awesome.

All I see is a device built to pinch your fingers.
|
Sanest Man Alive - 2012-11-04 Yeah, I kinda hope this is just a prototype, because that resetting motion seems designed to cost you a thumb at least.

The redneck / Red Green in me wants to build one of these out of plywood and PVC.
