What are you carrying?

Kolwdwrkr An interesting table. Do the legs fold in flat for carrying. The last picture shows the “Lady” doing the carrying. A great job

A conversation piece indeed! Very cool design.

Most different table, I can see why it is not as stable as you wanted, I am not sure how you would get around that, it would take much thought. I applaud your workmanship and efforts, coming up with new ideas is seldom easy, and trying them shows an effort of taking risks and being brave. I am thinking about this, as I write, I wonder, if you had taken the sillouhette of a woman carrying a basket, which is what you have in a sense, from the arms up, but kept a wider profile downward, I think it would have worked better for you in the stability factor. It’s that mid section that is weak, it is so narrow. Just trying to help you figure it out, keep following those dreams and ideass.

Some interesting geometry going on there. I like it.

wonderful design. i can see that its stability would be limited. The best part is your interpretation of one thing into wood and still maintain recognition

Nope, no criticism her. I like different. When I first saw it I thought the top tilted. Next time cut a slot in that 1/2 round support and make the top pivot. LOL
Tonight I will post one of my trying to be different projects. :)

Kewl design. I guess you can put a square peg into a hole.

I think it’s just nifty neat.

Hi kolwdwrk;

It’s definitely different. Very interesting design, as though you were trying to bust out of the “norm”

Nice work, great design! Kinda Kewl looking!

Can’t criticize such a creative endeavour. Really looks cool, nice prototype?

Thanks for all the comments guys. I wasn’t ever going to post this project. In fact only 3 people really knew about it. My exwife, my painter, and my brother. I was going to through it in the trash and my painter decided he liked it and took it. My girlfriend encouraged me to post it on here and honestly I wasn’t expecting much for comments. So it is appreciated.
Savannah, I thought about having a wider base but then the woman would have been fat. LOL
Karson, I didn’t make the legs operable.
BentlyJ, I doubt I will ever make something like this again but if I do I will consider the swiveling top.
Mtnwild, I think this is a prototype of what not to make. LOL
Again thanks for all the comments.

that’s cool it looks like you could make it to fold for easy carrying
