Here’s a video of one amazing table! Have company coming over for dinner? Do not despair! With a flick of the wrist, a push and a pull this table expands to fill the room, and fill your guests with wonder! The geometric design is fascinating to watch too! It reminds me of a kaleidoscope!

Called a Fletcher Capstan Table and created by David Fletcher it is based on a nineteenth century design by Robert Jupe. More information and videos are available here.

From time to time I come across some cool woodworking related videos. Some of them are instructional, some are humorous, some are just cool. I’m going to start posting them here on Woodworker’s Guide in a new category called ‘Cool Videos’.

Btw - The vase in the story sold on eBay as a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society for $5600.00
