Clever table design

I can imagine my fingers getting crushed so vividly after watching that.

Just goes to show you that there is always innovation left to be done. Hell, before seeing this video I would have assumed that table innovation was pretty much finished. Makes me think of statements from some of Google's engineers saying that search is 95% perfected.

I was thinking this was going to be about html tables...

Anyone else think about designing and building their own? I'd love to design something physical for a change.

Why is it that when you click on the "Pricing" link on their website it doesn't tell you the price?<p><a href="http://www.dbfletcher.com/capstan/" rel="nofollow">http://www.dbfletcher.com/capstan/</a><p>A YouTube commenter said it costs abut $17K. Another site indicates it's a bit more: "The large Capstan tables cost around $95,000 and the smaller Rising and Furling tables cost between $24,000 and $58,500 depending on size."<p><a href="http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/13/db-fletcher-tables/" rel="nofollow">http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/13/db-fletcher-tables/</a><p>Anyone know how much for the one in the video? Or is it all custom?

Now I need a room that can expand as easily as the table.

Here we go. HN's first youtube post :(

flip-flops?

If you twist it one more time, it becomes the Transformer that says, "What's up, little bitches?"
