Industrial side table

You should see what i built at 18. Ummm..A cinder block with a piece of plywood on it..Lol. You’re starting out great young man. Welcome to Lumberjocks!

Cinderblocks?

Hell, I used killed wine jugs…

Great looking piece.

-- make it safe & keep the rubber side down.

Heck..milk cartons for me, and bed sheets on the windows lol. Man great piece….very interesting style. If you don’t mind me asking, what led to this design ? seen something like it, just came up with it ??

AT first glance I thought “Thats different but nice” But the more I look at it, the more interesting I find it.

Very cool, and way to use your brain, very unique.

Cool. Looks very functional. I’m like Don. What made you come up with this idea?

Well done design and execution. I will keep the top and bottom etching idea for future projects. The bolt heads blend into the design so well you almost don’t realize what they are until you look closer.

Thanks for all the good comments. As far as the idea behind it… I go to school in Detroit, and between classes I find myself exploring the city as much as I can, soaking up everything i see. It has made my style much more industrial. seeing so many structures decaying, led me to want to create something that shines light on the beauty of these structures, and the way nature works around them. I come from a family of italian masons, so the bricks on the glass represent a solid foundation as well as some family history.

Interesting. I like that you take in the detail and make your mind see things that most of us would not see. Good luck in your future endeavors.

dreadhead,
Thanks for the reply. You young man have a bright future ahead of you. Now knowing your inspiration, I like how you have taken the old and decayed/new and bright and your own heritage and made a truly unique piece.

I really like this table. The use of different materials is what makes it great. I try to work with wood and to get other elements involved is impressive.

Great Job!!
