How to build a Tensegrity Table?

Has anyone tried to build a Tensegrity Table?   I'd love to make one as a coffee table or side table.

Re: Tensegrity Table

Hello @peter84st 

 

One of our members @Super_D has built such a table. Here is a link to the discussion - Floating Table. There was an excellent explanation of how they built up tension and fixed the wires in place. It's definitely worth a quick look if you are planning on building something similar.

 

It was actually quite a large table at 60cm across and 70cm tall, perfect size for a coffee or side table. I suggest drawing a few sketches and sharing it with the community. I'm sure our members will be more than happy to provide advice and information.

 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

 

Eric
