Want!

[DaGaffer]

Sat down with my boss today and he wants me to go visit a company in the US he's involved with as a VC about partnerships. They're a furniture company who do some really nice stuff, and while I was browsing I saw this (as you all forgot my birthday, cunts, you can club together for it):

[Zarjazz]

Looks like a life size Monopoly piece

 

[megadave]

Looks hideous

 

[Corran]

looks tacky. give me a hammer, aluminum sheets and an ironing board and I make you one

 

[Tom]

That looks wank.

 

[DaGaffer]

You're all peasants.

 

[ECA]

Sorry Gaffer, even I can't get on board with this. It looks a bit wank.

 

[Killswitch]

I think companies sometimes forget that just because something is marketed as Hand-Made doesn't mean it has to look it...

 

[Moriath]

bet that would never fly

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Looks like a TVR.

 

[Scouse]

Thought it was kinda funky but wouldn't buy it.

HB old bean

 

[GimmlyThe3rd]

Wouldn't even store that in my garden, hideous.

 

[Sparx]

Thats a nice lamp

 

[rynnor]

If its meant to be based on old airframes why are there phillips type screwheads visible where they should be rivets?

 

[dysfunction]

Because it's cheap tat

Cause it is a sloppy job and DaGaffer has no taste!

HB tho

 

[Chilly]

It looks ok at range, but the detail is horrible. SCREWS?? Ugh. -1

 

[Ch3tan]

Your taste has dropped as your age increases.

Happy birthday old man, but that desk is fugly

They're not Philips, they're Pozidrive.

/pedant

 

[rynnor]

They're not Philips, they're Pozidrive.

Oh dear - I think you mean Pozidriv which is a sub-type of Phillips but these are clearly not Pozidriv because as the wiki states they are "visually distinguishable from Phillips by the second set of cross-like features set 45 degrees from the cross".

owned

i had no idea so many different screws existed

 

[DaGaffer]

Sadly the pedants are having an off day. They are rivets. They're a type of aircraft rivet called a cherry rivet (after the company that originally made them)

 

[dysfunction]

Yet they still like like cheap screws!

 

[GimmlyThe3rd]

People even argue about fucking screws on this forum now, seriously? Pozidriv? It's either a flat head or a cross head, otherwise it's some some shitty special one ok?

;p

But I think we've come to an agreement regardless of screw type, it looks hideous, what happened to modern or old wood designs?
