15-yr-old's shop class table stuns DIYers around the world






This is a wonderful design concept that deserves to be commercially marketed.  We see a step by step build in the images but that is pretty obvious.
It would wonderfully augment the bare dining room table when not used.  When used, table cloths go on it anyway. 

This is a nice bit of work that we will surely see soon.


15-yr-old's shop class table stuns DIYers around the world — look closer and you'll see why
A scarf, an ashtray, and a birdhouse-those are just three of the things I made my parents for Christmas and birthdays in arts and crafts classes growing up. But vocational classes can be a whole more creative if you think big.

Just ask this 15-year-old kid. When he signed up for a woodworking class in school, he decided to think outside the box... and build a table that would stand out from the crowd.

The result is brilliant and when the 15-year-old posted pictures of how he made it on Imgur, he was bombarded with tributes by impressed DIYers.

This really shows that when you put your imagination and creativity into a project, the possibilities are endless. Scroll down to see the project take shape!

9. Last but not least, a two-way mirror on top. This is how the finished table looks—unplugged. Now, it's time to power it up.

13. Whatever you put on top endlessly repeats, giving the illusion of a portal to another world.

14. Of course, the table won a grand prize at school. What to say? This is an amazing table!
