Beautiful, Clever, Functional.

love it. clever design and looks great.

I now understand why Robert is taking such a huge amount. This desk is worth the amount.

It's worth what the market will pay for it. I could make that same desk and sell it for $500, easy.

@@olduglyentwife5700 I've made tables and desks before. Something like that? $500, tops.

We absolutely love this!! Please show us how to make it or better yet, give us a price to make it for us! Lol!! Not being carpenters, we couldn't make this at 67 years old. But we would buy it!

It's quite expensive, but definitely very cool.

how much weight can the table sustain? what kind of wood is it made of?

Weight was my first concern when looking at this video. It seems that side bar (which connects all the ribs) would transfer all the load to 2 points and then through 2 last ribs (on left and right) into the wall anchors. I checked out website in video description "Features brass hinges, providing durability and stability that has a large weight capacity up to 18 kg, 40 Lbs to support your daily use."

As a work of experimental art, it is beautiful and the artist deserves a lot of credit. But as a functional everyday desk, personally I'd pass. I'm not sure if this desk has a latch to prevent it from folding up if you leaned against it too hard, but personally this doesn't seem durable and stable enough to actually work on even if it had something like that.

How do the vanes pivot / attach to each other? - very clever, making my head hurt trying to understand this construction

They are attached to the desktop with hinges. The outer veins have a hinge at the top and are attached to the wall, the rest of the veins have a wire running through them. It’s a very simple and elegant design

@@markbailor7207 Thanks Mark. I’d got as far as the hinges, but had assumed some sort of slot in the side of each vanes and a pin on the other to allow it to slide up ne down and rotate. Hadn’t thought of a wire (much simpler). I can see the wire tensioning nut now. But how does the wire work as it is a much shorter distance when closed vs open. Or does the wire run in a curved shape when shut perhaps?

Every slat except for the ends is slotted, and there is a solid rod that slides through the slots.

we are wandering with a group of friends about the stability of the piece, perhaps one might want to have a cup of tea while reading....

What happens when you press down on the front edge? It appears that will make it fold up, which is not really what I want in a desk!

I agree, there should be a locking mechanism or safety measure in place

What are the dimensions of this table?

A very nice design. I wonder how practical the design is but so far i think its simply beautiful. Also: for all the people who are complaining about the price. The investment costs of developing such a table should also be taken into account, and i assume he is making the products by himself so it generally seems labor intensive and there for expensive.

lol. You want free plans?

2600 dollar that's around 3 years salary without any expenses 😂😂

Releasing the plans to this would do the world a favor, as I could likely construct one for myself for far less than the 3,000-dollar asking price. Thank you.

Easy to find how-to's on this design. I made one really cheaply. Beware that the design is really impractical and applying weight to it, as you might with any desk, can cause it to fold up. Frankly, it's not a great desk at all.

​@@thesaint8400 I was wondering the same. It needs some kind of latch at the back of the tables plate to keep it from unfolding again. Where have you found plans for the measurements? I feel like the design is pretty simple, but knowing the exact measurements for the grooves is what makes it look flowing

Three thousand bucks? Well they'll sell a couple for that price. It's worth about $500 for the clever design and the premium wood. I'll wait for the knockoff to hit Walmart for $99. Too bad for the designer; a reasonable price might have made you some decent returns. For greed you get squat.

As I always say to people who don't like the cost of handmade items, feel free to make it yourself. Another fellow here on KZread did just that, which is what brought me here My time is worth what my time is worth. I don't own a sweatshop with full of impoverished children, and I don't have the time, skills, or equipment to build a piece like this. I notice this comment was made a year ago, and I have yet to see anything like this at Wal-Mart or anywhere else for $99, so I guess the OP is still editing for that knockoff.
