    I think this is kinda cool. He says he figured out how to make it so it is a production design and he can turn one of these out in about 2 days.

    "Kinda cool" is an understatement! That looks really cool to me!

        At first glance I thought the same thing. Also would like to know the size and the basics on how he does it.

          I'm not sure on the exact dimensions, but it is intended to be an end table if that helps. As for how he does it, it is a glue up, each leg is 4 pieces - 3 under the table and 4th on top. The 4th piece has a bolt in it that attaches to a rare earth magnet in the main leg. He drills a hole in the glass for the bolt to go through.

                wow! wow! wow! he's got to join this forum (thats if he already isnt).

                is the glass top tempered? if so, isnt it impossible to drill a hole in tempered glass (its suppose to shatter because of the released internal stress)?

                  That is very cool. Probably too mod to get put in my house (LOML), but very cool indeed!
