Exactly one year ago I created this (imo) piece of art. It took me around 10 days of dedicated hard work! Hope you guys appreciate my work. I'm a Dutch furniture designer / maker with a great dream of creating more masterpieces :)
Check out my blog for more posts on this kind of subject! I'm planning on an insight post on this table.. (I'm new to the community so don't expect my blog to already be filled)
It looks great! To finish it as masterpiece we suggest making a room fountain out of it.
With a wooden ball rolling on water at the top and some more of these energizing lights at the top aswell like them below.
The light looks really fantastic.
As a fountain it could filter small particles out of the air.
It is a little small for a table, at least from the view we have here.
But nothing bad about it it's perfectly well done!
Hey, That is super nice of you to say ;) Thanks! I have never thought of it that way! It is indeed a small table (table top is around 60x30). Woah, I'm also thinking about purchasing a lathe to turn more wood (and even make my own wooden balls ;)! How would you suggest implementing the wiring and hoses for the water??

That is great! What kind of wood is that? I would love to see pictures of how you carved the spiral.
My guess is walnut or another fruit tree like cherry :) lets wait for the answer
So its oak!! Looks great, doesnt it?
Hehe, it might surprise both of you if I told it is Oak (waxed in candlewax!)
Good choice.
