I made a table with knobs on...

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Post by Metal Vendetta » Wed Mar 16, 2005 12:33 am

For the living room, it's a little coffee/magazines/arty yet porny books sort of table. I made it out of my housemate's old bedframe, and the fronts of the drawers from underneath became the tabletop, with the knobs arranged in a zigzag pattern.

I wish I had my camera, it's beautiful.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

Emvee, I think the general consensus is that you need to post a picture for the good of TransFans. Adding porn is optional.

I will supply a picutre.

Bear with me, things are somewhat chaotic due to a PC-upgrading/spring-cleaning/St. Patrick's Day co-incidence. I have batteries for my camera somewhere...

So......have you found a use for the knobs?

Looks like they have potential to get in the way of.....stuff.

Considered a nice dark stain on it before you varnish it? That'd look nice ^_^

Yeah, but it's very difficult to paint over blood if you decide to later on.

Looks nifty. :)

probably just me, but if the knobs were in a different arrangement, it would make a good bondage table....

Possibly the knobs are there to discourage visitors from having sex on it?

Niiice table. The knobs are interesting... when I look at it, I think 'rope' too. Not exactly bondage though. ;) Kinda wanna take a rope or some string, something colourful and twist it in patterns around the knobs, y'know what I mean?

Zigzag pattern, or take the string, tie it to the top, swing it down to the bottom and wind it back up to the top... two strings tied to the bottom knob, wind them around, cross them over at the top, then zigzag pattern on the inside down on opposite sides...

Damn, now I want a table with knobs on. :eek:

They make great defenders if you're playing coin football (schoolboy game where you play football with a coin, sort of) and they're just rounded enough so that you can balance a can of beer on one and it looks like it's floating :)

More uses as I discover them! saysaydie - I'm intrigued by the string idea...

I meant the football games! And the string ones Sadie mentioned. :(

The table appears a bit too small for rope-tying fun anyway... ;)

Hm.

I just showed these pics around the office, and everyone was like: "Oh yeah, that's definitely a fetish table."

...It appears I have kinky furniture and I didn't even know it :|

That's weird....I just saw a table with knobs on it.

Almost looks like the front of an armoir.
