Manufactured by DB Fletcher Furniture Design @ http://www.dbfletcher.com/caps... Fletcher Capstan Tables The expanding table shown here is the result of many years of development, but follows a line of history of more than one and a half centuries. This, the Fletcher Capstan Table, is the only table in the world with its unique properties. It is a circular table which, when rotated at its outer perimeter, doubles its seating capacity, yet astonishingly remains truly circular. The expansion leaves are stored within the table and, in just four seconds, smoothly and quickly emerge upon rotation, rising and radially expanding outwards as the entire top is turned through 30˚. Existing tables can seat six persons when small, and twelve or more when expanded, but there are other design possibilities. All Capstan Tables are exclusively designed and built, and each one numbered. Careful consideration is always given to a table's location and components are made to the highest standards. Nautical tables are so constructed that they are able to resist a harsh marine environment to the point that they may be positioned permanently on an exposed deck. Read about the genesis and history of the Radially Expanding Table. Specifications * Tables can be of any style and of any suitable material and are exclusively designed for each commission * The area of the table expands by 73% allowing two sizes with seating capacities of six and twelve. * Typical diameter variation -- small size 1.9m (74.75"), large 2.5m (98.5") * The operating mechanism is beautifully engineered, simple and robust. PATENT GRANTED. DESIGN RIGHT. (via BoingBoing)

Dude, what -is- your problem? You need to chill out. Some people think these would be cool if they worked automatically, you obviously don't. Big deal, get over it.

Yeah, and those guys in Switzerland making luxury watches should put a damn electric motor and a battery in them, too!

More the fact that if you're willing to pay fifty grand for one, you could at least expect they could make it work automatically. After all this is simply a conversation piece more than anything. Why not go the whole hog?

The pits on CDs and DVDs (and digital audio Laserdiscs) represent the bits in the stream. Their depth does not vary and the "valleys" are simply sequences of pits placed close together. Furthermore, the groove in vinyl records does not vary in width, except at the very end. FYI, I worked in DVD mastering and duplication for several years, and the information is easily available on several websites. If you want to spread nonsense, go ahead, but you're really only making a fool of yourself.

actually you both are wrong cds dvds and laser disks use pits and valleys to make the electronic signal where records have one continuous valley that varies in width and depth a cd has many pits that vary in depth and length
