[Viirray]

BE GENTLE WITH IT.

[AldoTheAphelion]

Looks like a bloody SAW trap

[BLUENIGHTMARES2288]

its very danger it could close on someones hand !!!

[lizziepiccola]

@BLUENIGHTMARES2288 So can a door.

[ronniereiff]

@BLUENIGHTMARES2288 so can a door but people should be smart enough for that to not happen

[DragmodNotloc]

build one bigger and deeper, and it would be the greatest way to present ideas.

Gentlemen,behold..., it's all in the first impressions.

[Tannz0rz]

Fucking epic.

[inthepants117]

how much does this thing coast?

[wildebeats]

Search this: Cunard Cabinet by Waters & Acland AMAZING!!!

[jkeuwk]

Tony Stark was able to build this in a cave! With a box of scraps!!

[Durkastatus]

I didn't even think it was possible, but I just...

TABLEGASMED

[ThePCMaster2000]

hightech table :D

[snelpiller]

never thought id want a table this bad

[ovniforos]

I wish an square table with this capabilityes.

[douro20]

If you think this type of table could be mass produced, you don't know what you're talking about. The precision is so critical that the operation of each table has to be tuned by hand. It takes a whole month from start to finish to make just one of these tables.

[Nilyentaraka]

Does it feature a scratch-resistant surface?

What is the warranty/repair policy? Is there a it-won't-cost-you-your-first-b­orn payment option?

[CelticReject]

Chuck Norris made one of these in Nam out of matchsticks.

[videogamegenius]

For those who study philosophy, this takes what is a table to a whole new level. lol

[gonzagabjj]

I want this table

[hoxvlog]

@jayfulf @mysteryloser24 your both gay.

[9876543210Hammer]

@hoxvlog

Nice argumentation there ;)

[WolfieTed]

I bet I could buy a nice car for the value of this table!

[reaper8891]

make it make the transformers noise when it expands :P

[vzb2]

I can already see some men getting his stuff pinched...

[BeBeAyumi]

its not a toy, dont play to much with it, naughty people ;P

[schlusselmensch]

Betcha a few rich folk have got their pinkies squeezed in this contraption!

[Codswallop58]

@schlusselmensch No, they hire someone else to do it for them.

[douro20]

$95,000 for this table- it's the most expensive round table in the world.

[mysteryloser24]

@douro20 $5,000 actually...

[palmer3977]

incredible!!

[thebrownduke]

Is it Just me, or does it look like it "transformed" a little shabby at 0:51?

[ValreeShoe]

I think we're gonna need a bigger boat...

[gogojets2]

sam is more awesome then james

[Flaakoh]

ingenio puro ^^

[carlosararat]

la mejor mesa que he visto en mi vida!!!

[jayfulf]

very nice piece... but a lot of materials wasted

[nashkrywka]

dude its mass production, they dont give a crap if materials are wasted

[jayfulf]

I'm not saying they care. I'm just saying it's a waste of materials given the fact that it is JUST a table however unique the design.

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf It's for creating space... It's a very clever design and it is very efficiently used on yachts and ships.

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 ....you're replying to my comment as if I don't understand what this is. It's not hard to grasp, it's just a waste of materials for something as simple as a table.

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf No, i'm sure you know exactly what this is, but saying it is a waste of materials is stupid... They don't cost much to make them, and for what they are, they don't cost much to buy them either :/

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 You cease to amaze with your moot replies. Materials as in materials.. not cash, money, dollars, whatever you want to call it. For something as simple as a table it certainly uses a lot of them and there's no denying that no matter your opinion.

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf Hmm, you sure do like to talk rubbish don't you? For my replies to cease being amazing, they had to be amazing somebody in the first place... Not you, surely? And besides, all I was doing was telling you the facts. It's an efficient way to make a useful table, and isn't a waste of any materials at all... It doesn't take much to make one of these tables anyway...

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf Hmm, you sure do like to talk rubbish don't you? For my replies to cease being amazing, they had to be amazing somebody in the first place... Not you, surely? And besides, all I was doing was telling you the facts. It's an efficient way to make a useful table, and isn't a waste of any materials at all... It doesn't take much to make one of these tables anyway...

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 It doesn't take much materials? Relative to what? I'm talking relative to an ordinary expandable table it does. How can you be so arrogant one something so simple.

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf Bahaha chuckles... Arrogant? No, not arrogant. Correct more liek. Relative to material usage in general, it does not take much to make one of these tables. Going slightly off subject which, I know you're going to flame me for, but how much materials do you think it takes to make a commercial airliner or a train? You won't complain about materials being wasted if you have to use the end product will you?

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 That's why I said relative to what. An airliner uses a lot of materials yes, but relative to other things in it's category it's all the same. This however is nothing more than an expanding table, so relative to it's category it uses a lot of materials.. following?

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf To be perfectly honest, i'm wasting my time with you here...

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 pf that's why you had to write that huh? You're a fucking goof.

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf Do you even know who I am? No, you don't, so stfu and gtfo the internet yah stupid kid...

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 haha you're are such an ignorant, arrogant piece of shit, but I bet you know that already.

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf Listen to yourself kid! This, is a video about a table. Ok, a damn table! And you want to talk about arrogance and ignorance? If I were you, I would redirect my attention to a dictionary, in which you will find the definitions of the words arrogant and ignorant. You will then see that I am neither. You, however are both. Your ignorance shows by not listening to me and pushing your nonsensical views... Your arrogance is your refusal to believe anything but those nonsensical views.

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 You keep making uneducated assumptions about my age (ignorance). You tell me I don't know who you are so stfu and gtfo the internet yah stupid kid (arrogance). You then go to use the very words I used to describe you and use them to describe myself. I can't figure out whether that's a lack of competence or just an unconscious passive-aggressive defense mechanism you've developed over the years. Either way it's childish and it makes me laugh uncontrollably. Hahahahahahahahahah

[mysteryloser24]

@jayfulf Wow... You really have no clue about the world do you? Were you raised wrong or something? To be perfectly honest, I couldn't care less about you, or what you think... I'd piss off and learn a little about life and how it works before you bother coming back to comment again... Jerk...

[jayfulf]

@mysteryloser24 hahaha where do you get this shit

[jakadaba]

Fighting on youtube is like the special olympics... if you win, your still a retard !

[jayfulf]

@jakadaba so I guess that makes you a douche bag then

[Dazzer1234567]

Just watch where you're fingers are when you're tweaking the table - could be painful

Kinda reminds me of a medieval torture device

[ManjiVegeta]

haha xD...

[Alex62546]

This shit is the Optimus Prime of tables.

[stang4lyfe07]

LMFAO... indeed it is

[nmq3b]

@Alex62546 LOL you're absolutely right.

[Ryguy778]

I want this table, but I don't want to pay 50k, can I try and make one myself? Just kidding! Good work, whoever made this! :3

[GreaceMunkey]

Actually to tell you the truch its not that hard to make as my friends have made one simular. Just takes alot of time if you know what i mean. :0

[xDontFaintx]

heh im not gettin one of those. im too scared ill get my fingers cought in . ouch !

[t0nito]

yeah, first time I saw this video I was imagining fingeres getting chopped and going in the table

[connect7]

a work of art

[xXxDEMANJENIYAxXx]

i would LOVE to be there.. very pretty and i love the table!

[t98907]

かっこいいいいいい

[Nightxp]

I WAN IT

[rockcherub123456789]

i bet that guy was all dizzy after that video

[deathletters16]

ouch!! my fingers!

[jfletchaman]

that is the coolest fucking table i have ever seen and i said what anyone who has seen this video

peace

[shawty2fyne07]

my man thinks the junk in my trunk is hard!?

[JohnnieRadical]

I think I'd just spend all day just turning this table around....

Throw some tie dye ink...

With some pot...

Yeah..

This is a stoner table.

A stoner with nothing to do

[TretasYT]

No, you are confusing CDs and DVDs with Laserdiscs. Laserdiscs do indeed encode the video (and, optionally, the audio) as a waveform. CDs and DVDs have a series of pits and spaces, representing the 1s and 0s of a digital stream. Just search for "microscope CD" on Google Images and you'll find plenty of close-up photos.

I'm sure you'll agree those look nothing like the guide disc used in this table.

[glitch1]

actually you both are wrong cds dvds and laser disks use pits and valleys to make the electronic signal where records have one continuous valley that varies in width and depth a cd has many pits that vary in depth and length

[TretasYT]

The pits on CDs and DVDs (and digital audio Laserdiscs) represent the bits in the stream. Their depth does not vary and the "valleys" are simply sequences of pits placed close together.

Furthermore, the groove in vinyl records does not vary in width, except at the very end.

FYI, I worked in DVD mastering and duplication for several years, and the information is easily available on several websites. If you want to spread nonsense, go ahead, but you're really only making a fool of yourself.

[TretasYT]

CDs don't have tracks / gorooves, just dimples representing the bits. You're probably thinking of vinyl records.

[TretasYT]

A Windows Vista CD costs less than 10 cents to make. It still sells for $150.

[danukiman]

its a transformer robots in disguise

[kushkiller024]

this tabel costs $49,000-$69,000 each

[ludawho321]

by the way, thats a beatiful table, wherd you get it? i think it would go great in my attic, just like yours should be, get with the ages bro, i mean cmon

[008626]

you'd think for how much those cost they could throw in a $10 motor to do it with the press of a button

[TretasYT]

Are you perhaps of the morbidly obese persuasion? Thought so.

[ShokaLion]

More the fact that if you're willing to pay fifty grand for one, you could at least expect they could make it work automatically. After all this is simply a conversation piece more than anything. Why not go the whole hog?

[TretasYT]

Yeah, and those guys in Switzerland making luxury watches should put a damn electric motor and a battery in them, too!

[ShokaLion]

Dude, what -is- your problem? You need to chill out. Some people think these would be cool if they worked automatically, you obviously don't. Big deal, get over it.

[MastaSquidge]

They beauty in it is that it DOESNT have a motor and is smooth and fast.

TretasYT has a very good point. Adding a motor to it would be tacky and uninteresting.

[Drumvain]

Yea I am sure for like $50 bucks you could strap A motor to it..lol

[macdaddyncheese]

i'd say it's more than just a conversation piece. it *does* expand, after all, and anyone who's ever had to deal with dropping table leaves into a table would appreciate the convenience.

[midas317]

where can i get one? ^_^

[Jo3yB7]

make a silent one ;)

[ConceptJNH]

check another one: type in Cross-Insert table

[ShikamaruLuvsTemari]

O_o i wonder how much it is

[hobanm45]

there website says lol $50,000 to $70,000

[NSResponder]

Well, once the patents run out, someone's going to make a fortune selling mass-produced versions of them.

-jrc

[NSResponder]

-jrc

[ShikamaruLuvsTemari]

yeah lols ^^

[54spiritedwill54]

wow! finally someone made an invention that is useful :)

[Ricci12345]

I agree, look at the wheel, totally useless!! °°IRONY°°

[Trivium1980]

waah la classe! tro fun, et bien foutu ken mm!

[206ernesto]

yeah i remember when i was in 5th grade, i asked my teacher; "why in the hell we need to learn math and geometry"

[pawppy]

very very nice sistem though i doubt it's usefulness for the much it costs

[jazzophis]

this is probably the worst table ive ever seen

[szia82]

i want one for my livingroom!!

[ChainReaction30]

I'd buy that yaught just for the table!

[Nabak58]

greatest

rispecr for maker&criater's

[IndianMetalHead333]

OMG THAT IS SO COOL

[ryaninc]

Wow! Looks like something straight out of Myst!

[daycoming]

$95,000 Cheap at half the price.

[Dazhimself]

i want, how much? lol does anyone know?

[Richied666]

That particular one is about $70k.....extremely expensive.

[roxyrainbow]

fabulous design. if possigle. an electric one would be off the charts. but I don't mean to take away from what you have here. It is gorgeous and truly facinating.

[teaoz]

amazing

[jigsawlver]

ok, so you can buy a bmw or one of these tables. it is cool though.

[VimVenture]

I want a motorized one that snaps in and out. KERCHUNK!

[fmtime]

Useless. Image how hard to clean this table.

If you use it as a dinning table, good luck finding the crambles that fall into it.

[purintai]

omg

[TGSC]

Any IKEA versions coming?? That table must be insanely expensive, suiTABLE for at yacht. I wonder how it looks after 5 years of rough seas and Paris Hilton partying.

[tommyaust]

You wouldn't want to do that when naked...squished willy.

[KingofChips]

e.<

[Frguy]

good for modify.

[Kathedral5]

It's kinda thick, like mentioned before. If they could, it'd be best to resize that bottom portion. Pretty sweet, though.

[vinsloveskalsea]

that table is awesome, how much would that cost??

[trochek]

Here's a quote from the manufacturers web site. "Please understand that this is an extremely special piece of furniture, of exceptional quality and design -- it is not for everyone by a very very long way and can only be afforded by the lucky few of us with exceptional wealth."

[gadget666]

they are perfect for cramped spaces like on a ship.

wouldnt be such a bad idea in a restuaraunt either

[crashsite000]

Notice in the first shot showing the chairs around it how far away they are from the table. A table top that thick is not good design even though the technology is amazing. You'd be hitting your knees or thighs on it constantly. Function before Form please.

[tektive]

Mattteus: It's like table porn

lmaof, that's classic lol. Man what it must be like in that head of yours I don't want to know

[tipsana]

I want it!

[comanchette]

me too!

[l0gically]

Microsoft, all you software companies filing for insanely stupid patents....THIS is innovative. THIS is worthy of a patent. Get it?

[Grogum]

It would have to be polished all the time, because you would get sooo many fingerprints on it. Still, that's an awesome table.

[mlw2005]

very cool

[mongoosecheese]

wow! finally someone made an invention that is useful :)

[Mattteus]

it's like table porn

[ckendall86]

those have got to be incredibly expensive!

[dittotl]

i still want one lol!!!

[badam89]

O that would hurt so much if someone got their fingers in it.

[1boatsailor]

It must be heavy, but if I had a yact like that Iwould hire some gringos to move it.

[kossxf]

thats beautiful

[SaNdMaN210]

that is f***ing insane

[Rhexis01]

now all they need is a motor so it does it via remote and some sort of electronics the beep and chirp

[ItamiBukoto]

That just blew my mind.

[Infinitis]

Woah!! O.o

[BlueStrikeP]

Transformers! Tables in disguise!

[UnicoVeroDio]

lol, what the hell

[tokamak1000]

I'd probably break my finger in it!

[alchemykam41]

omfg...wow...

[fix8ion]

can he do that with a gallon of gas? :D

[Volaray]

sick

[babyjuice06]

it's a transformer table! i want it...

[donkonishi]

subarasii

[kiksann]

more! more!

[FineCat]

How cool is this!

[geezerart]

WOW! What a piece of art that is!

[USBcable]

WOW, I want one so bad just so I could open and close it all day till I break it.

[andersondd]

Fake..

hUAHAUUAHUHUA , kidding... wonderfull!
