Lightable

| beki

So I wanted to make a table I could extend, but I couldn’t find a good place to put the extension parts.
So I made the extension into a light..
The lights remain on the ceiling, the frame comes down to hold the table leaf.
The table leaf itself are 2 paintings hanging on the wall. (Still need to be painted tho)
Light info: LED strip 60LED/m
130LUX at 1m50. (70W Halogen = 130LUX, 60W incandescence light bulb = 80LUX)






My try at Rietvelds ZigZag chair

| beki

V1: pinewood, face side visible

V2: pinewood, most like the original

V3: oregon pine, attempting something different: planing the wood into a V shape


V4: beech wood, again with the V shape, making the V without a template is hard, you can see the lines of the V not coming together nicely on the back.
This chair also contains a flattened backside, so the V doesn’t go all the way up to the top of the backside (making another V shape in the back)





V5: oak, with the V shape, also V shape on the whole backside (I forgot to plane this side of…)

And V4 and V5 face to face:
