Jellyfish Table #1: Sketchup Design

Looks Sweet mate and your getting good on the whole SU design cant wait to see the finished peice

-- cut it saw it scrap it

Nice work, Bkake. I’ll be interested in seeing how your table turns out.

I do have a question, though. Why didn’t you draw the lamp in SketchUp? :-D

-- Until you spread your wings, you'll have no idea how far you can walk.

Looking forward to seeing this one take shape Blake, cool design, did you consider doing something with the profile of the apron (similar to the edge of the top)? Might be too busy but something to chew on.

and to think that you were going to give it all up. Looks great man

HI BLake, Very nice design. I think you will have captured the feel of the jellyfish. Please post photos when you are finished or during the process.

Great design Blake. I’m betting the table will surpass the jellyfish piece. What do you plan on making the legs from?

Jelly, of course!

-- If a man says something in the forest and there's no woman to hear it, is he still wrong?

The table going to be a challenge to build but I think you can do it.

Good looking design Blake!

Are you planning to make the tentacles all uniform in position and shape, or are you going unique with them?

There was a similar multi-legged table with unique legs on the back cover of FWW at some point this year. I can’t for the life of me remember when though.

Sorry the jelly fish just definitely doesn’t do it for me but your table will be nice I have a book with a similar table in it with metal legs , it looks great my 2 cents Alistair

Blake,

Your creativity never seizes to amaze me. I think you captured the essence of the light without being too literal. I cannot wait to see you blog this one. Especially the legs and the finish work on this.
