Love this video! I was actually going to build something like it for my YT channel, but you beat me to it. Tensegrity tables are the new epoxy river tables and you guys perfected it on the crest of the wave. Congrats.

This is about the fifth “Tensegrity” video I’ve seen and I feel it’s one of the best. Thanks, so much for your time and effort. So far, I’m limited to wood but, I still learned a lot from this video. The variable tension screw was just what the doctor ordered! Awesome!

Nice build. I love how you keep us up to date on what you are working on. The majority of these types of videos is just someone cutting and working with pieces that you have no clue what they are for until maybe at the end.

I loved this video, not only because it shows the talented craftman, but also because it shows every step in the making : taking measures, marking the steel, clearing after soldering... And it helps me a lot, as a beginner in soldering and work with steel... There's at least as much talent in steel crafting than in video making ! Good job, again, I loved it !

the one tensegrity furniture that makes sense to me in strength and looks! it looks amazing and its strong as an ox! it surpasses all the derpy wood with rope structures!

Best Tensegrity structure table so far. It looks great and even functional; not just a sculpture. Buckminster Fuller and Kenneth Snelson would be proud of it. Watching how you made it was very interesting. Thanks for sharing such great work.

I really appreciate that you took the time to post the blue prints in the description! This is the best design that I’ve seen of these!!!

That was the best Windex commercial I’ve ever seen!

Very nice! Easy enough to make a complete set... Taller, wider, longer... This is an impressive piece, in my opinion. Thank you for sharing it, and your plans!

This table has been on my to-do list since the first time I watched the video. Thank you for posting the plans. I will try to make you proud.

That is one mean creative table, a definite statement piece, Im amazed at your talent creating so many different things in your workshop and the talent of StClaude Woodworks in your previous video. But then if you can do up a fire station and outfit your home like you and your friends did Im convinced you can do anything. Thanks for the share, awesome. :)

13:22. It’s nice to see a video where someone actually tests it out a bit. I really like this it’s awesome. Plus the glass top Just makes it look so much cleaner. Great job.

I think this might be my favourite of all the tensegrity tables I've seen. I get that people want to make them look like they are invisibly floating, but I think there's something a bit disappointing about seeing nearly-invisible monofilament that is the opposite of what I feel when I see chains standing up apparently all by themselves

I've watched a lot of these Tensegrity Table Builds, this is by far the best

A lovely build. I noticed you weld, pushing the weld along the seam. I was taught to hold my torch facing into the weld path. Never seen welding like this, I'll give it a try.

Outstanding sir. I’m going to have to work this into some of my projects.

This has got to be the coolest build video and table I've ever seen before. Made it look so easy too.

this is something i didnt ask to see but pleasantly suprised with my recommended. this needs to blow up!

This is absolutely gorgeous!

Spectacular. Real art. Thanks for sharing.

Wow, ... I had to study this for a few moments to figure out how it even worked. What a creative project! If you ever sell it I hope you get a lot of money for such a unique piece of function art! Great job!

Love your clamping system. Subscribed to your channel. Keep doing great job

Thank you for the plans. I just finished two of the tables yesterday and they turned out great. I used 2" square because it was leftover from a job and 1/4" chain since I had a bucket of it. Also had some tempered glass that dictated the size. I also welded 5/16" all thread to the chain on the bottom with a hole below for adding nuts with a socket allowing me to fine tune each tension chain for a perfect height. The center tensioner I made out of a 5/8" bolt. Great job and fun project.

Woodworking is cool but there's something about metalworking that just speaks to my soul.

Damn fine craftsmanship, design and artistry brother!

Awesome build & video mate! - ...and, very kind of you to share the plans! - Much respect from Australia !

Proper job guys! I want one!

I can give you enough respect for doing all of this and then putting up the plans for free, insanely generous of you, so thank you.

Отличная работа,интересный стол. Молодец!👌

I guess you could say this project is an example of the old adage " each to his own taste ". It just so happens that over 60 years ago as a graduate engineer I did a " graduate apprenticeship " as it was called at a land-boiler manufacturer in Scotland for two years. Here I learned some basic skills including plating and gas and arc welding. Later on I worked for another company on the River Clyde which built destroyers for the Royal Navy. So I'm familiar with metal working especially on the " heavy " side of the spectrum. My former mates would have strongly approved of this sturdy design, one which we can be sure could well withstand a concerted attack from enemy aircraft. That said, I have since learned to associate " tensegrity structures " [ a term invented by Buckminster Fuller in the late 1940's who cooperated with others in building these [ usually ] light and airy structures ], which have the characteristics of being at first glance " impossible " because the tension members are often hard to see. They also deflect in response to external forces and are " compliant " or spongy. So I find this version rather remarkable in that has strayed so far into the domain of heavy engineering - with chains, admittedly hardly anchor chain, but getting on that way, and sturdy welded frames. SO - as I said " each to his own taste " - and devil take the hindmost !

Love it. Great work and thanks for sharing!

Raffinierte Konstruktion! Gut gearbeitet und geschweißt! Absolutes Designer - Möbel. Respekt!

Hola, un proyecto muy interesante, gracias por compartir sus conocimientos.

El diseño de tu mesa tipo industrial es genial, supiste equilibrar a la perfección la tensegridad con un buen diseño. Gracias por compartirlo. Ese detalle de los orificios de donde van sujetas las cadenas me encantó.

I love the editing! Super satisfying watch

Excellent demonstration!

Project Farm did a great comparison on cutting oils. You'd be interested to see where your 3in1 oil ranks.

The outside chains are not under tension unless the top plate is not horizontal. In general, there is little force on the four corner chains, unless you put something heavy away from the center of the plate.

Nice Job. I love the industrial look of it. Well done.

Best tensegrity table I have seen to date. Great work.

This is awesome. I was going to build an infinity cube table but now I’m really considering this instead. Better yet, why not both!?! You make it look so easy but I know I will spend countless hours figuring it out haha

Thats some awesome work you did there, great craftmansship. I'm gonna make myself a little dining table and I wanted to see if such a design would be sturdy enough, and yours seems really good. Definitly looking at your future works ^^ I just wanted to mention, be careful with the angle grinder. As a welder myself, I know that the protection mostly sucks and is always in the way, but a coworker recently lost his eyesight on one eye, because the disk broke (we always worked without protection). We have a protective face shield, just like yours, and he wore it when it happened. One part smashed it away from his face, and a second disk part cut him straight over the face. So be safe bro, such skills shouldnt be wasted, because of a dumb mistake

absolutely love this table, great job!

Amazing work and design!

Looks fierce! A clear favorite among the tensegrity table bills I’ve seen. My one suggestion is due to a pet peeve of mine: I think the glass top should match the dimensions the table. The extra lip provides a mean corner to klutz against. Also, it erases the symmetry of the upper and lower halves of your structure.

I ran a metal fab shop for 43 years. I could never get my guys to work that fast......no mater how much I paid them. 🤷🏻‍♂️

best tensegrity table I've seen yet. Thanks

우와!!!!!! 한참 보고서야 알았어요 최고입니다!!

Look pretty straightforward to me. I think I'm going to buy a Mig welder or something and replicate this too.

Great build! Was totally into until I saw that VW Bug there, then got distracted...love it all👍🏻

This type of table has always been a wonder to me. Is something how just tension can balance out with out compression a piece like this. Nice build and just downloaded your plans for it. Now for some fun. Thank You and hope to see more from your channel.

Dude your wrench is so badass. 10/10 project. 11/10 wrench.

this will be a fine addition to my Lord's dungeon

This was a random recommended video. Don't know why. Good break from Forensic Files and Conspiracy Theories.

Fantastic craftsmanship and a great step by step video for other metalworkers to follow. The mechanical engineers out there might dispute that this is a true tensegrity structure as the compression elements are not only in compression but are in tension where they bend.

Nothing beats a pair of Adidas Sambas. Awesome build.

It always odd seeing your home town in a youtube intro

Welding in shorts & a tee shirt? You're braver than I am. :)

Simply amazing. Thank you so much for sharing!!

Awesome metal work!

The best, most functional table of this kind I've seen. I'm just not much of a fan of the finish.

😘😍😍😍😍😍

I just hope that one day I can afford to have a garage and all the right tools to put in it. Truly have a passion for building and creating....

Excellent craftsmanship.

Who's here cause they saw a stupid facebook post.

342 people still cannot figure out how the table is suspended.

This would look amazing with a brushed steel finish!

Awesome work

upside down, glass on wrong surface. Bolt below in center, not visible then.

An engineering feat, originally created by Donald Trump's barber.

Awsome project. Beautiful table

That was a zen like experience watching this vid

I've seen many floating tables making.. but urs is the best

Que bien cuánto arte,soy Juan Ayala de Argentina,recido en Chile y me encanta ver en youtube todos los que tienen la habilidad de hacer trabajos geniales .👏👏bendiciones amigo.🙏👍

Great work. Nice quality table. Very inspiring.

really sick ! i would want one for sure

This is really cool! I’ve always loved fabrication.

I’m intrigued! Thank You

You got skills! Awesome job! Much respect!

Hats off to the maker High level of perfection and experience is required for doing such kind of things. Great job, well done

Truly amazing talent !! Thanks for the inspiration!

I love how the strong chains give the illusion that gravity is pulling the top up and heavy chains are needed to stop it from flying up into space.

It looks very massive, but when you slightly touch it, it moves! 🤩👍

Great job!! I love the look!

Nice work!

👍👍👍 many thanks for the table drawings

Super cool, thanks

Amazing. Good job, bro.

Amazing Idea, great job!

That looks friggin wicked mate.

Pretty cool

I still can't wrap my head around these tables! They are the wierdest, coolest designs! Very enjoyable and well made clip and table! Thanks! That table must weigh a ton if it's a pound! 😳🤔

Great table , good idea !

Just wonderful !

Excellent work!

EXCELLENT WORK

Amazing work!

I'm an artist and metalworker and love this idea. I might try it in thinner steel with aircraft cables so it looks even more "floaty". Brilliant, clean work. If you're ever in the DC-area, look me up and I'll buy you a pint. Cheers!

the first time I see a craftsman who marks metal with the right tool

Very nice, strong and beautiful
