	A pair of plain leaf hinges	1 Relevance	9 years ago	leif ericson - Zephyr Renner	General discussion
	A pair of plain leaf hinges on the bottom sides attach the flaps. And the daughter tables are a gate leg design basically: lift the flaps and open the gateleg. The whole thing is a clever design that tries to convince you mightily that the ideal way to serve is on a mini stowable table with the meal delivered on the mothership.

	It could be noted that this chair is a reduction-to-the-essentials of the Windsor type. I'd love to know how those turned stretchers under the seat are joined to the legs; that joint is being acted upon in withdrawal and is the only thing keeping the legs from splaying outward under the weight of the user. A wedged tenon, perhaps ? Their extreme proximity to the upper end of the leg is what increases the stress on the joint . . .
	Thanks for the intersting...	1 Relevance	12 years ago	mafbail	General discussion
	Thanks for the intersting... Thanks for the intersting discussion of how these tambour doors are cut. I recently viewed an auction where there was an Arne Vodder (Sibast) credenza and was amazed by the quality of the door construction. The guillotine thing makes perfect sense and I can see why the guillotine stops short of cutting entirely through the wood in order to protect the canvas from damage.
	it looks "staged" (?)	1 Relevance	13 years ago	Eameshead	General discussion
	it looks "staged" (?) The interior feels so clean, like nobody really lives there. Other than the walk in closet, it probably has been staged by a rookie real estate agent. The "Art" on the walls is painful. I would venture to say that the guitar painting alone will kill a few deals on its own. Hard to look past that thing. House Kebab.... is there a gunpoint price you would consider paying for this house? And did you ever find a chair?

	Down to CITES. I think 70+... Down to CITES. I think 70+ lots were withdrawn from the Sworders sale today. When the government approached antique dealers in regard to protected woods, they forgot to speak to post war dealers. Whole thing is ridiculous - rosewood furniture can be sold, but you need to apply for a certificate, obviously at cost. Bit of a mess really. Big article in the trade gazette.
	Every market is different. ...	1 Relevance	13 years ago	cubby01	General discussion
	Every market is different. ... Every market is different. I would suggest spending some time searching the local Craigslist to get an idea of prices. Then eBay sold listings as well. And of course there are local dealers. Companies that run estate sales often either have good knowledge or have contacts they bring in to do estimates. "Help, I have 1960's teak danish furniture." ^^^^^ I got quite a chuckle out of that title. Like it's a bad thing. 🙂

	I posted this in the art thread too but it fits here. These are just pieces I picked up at auctions for cheap---some Japanese mass-produced stuff that looks handmade, some local handmade pieces, and maybe a Raymor thing or two, I forget. This was two houses ago and right now they're all packed away but will soon be liberated. I had a lot more than this but tried to edit them down to an interesting mix of contrasting colors, texture, and mostly sizes and shapes. It was a fun exercise in composition.
	Very nice.	1 Relevance	14 years ago	SDR	General discussion
	Very nice. Corner cabinets are relatively uncommon -- just the thing for certain furniture arrangements, dictated by room plan and traffic patterns, etc. Where you need one, nothing else will do . . . Notice that the wood-grain pattern follows through from the doors to the drawer front -- a sign of care and quality. By the way, I'd love to see how that drawer works -- given the plan shape of the cabinet ! Maybe it's a drop-down door ?
	fixing laminate proposal?	1 Relevance	18 years ago	Andre2	General discussion
	fixing laminate proposal? Could the link below be a proposal to fix the crack? Note that the photo's are in reversed order. The fixing sequence are the number at the middle top of each picture. The nice thing about this fix is that you will see only at the back that it has been patched/fixed, the front stays the same. Thnx André http://www.flickr.com/photos/founditems/sets/72157617998416164/
	No Berber	1 Relevance	19 years ago	James Collins	General discussion
	No Berber I had a wool berber in my last house. It was a royal pain in the tuchus (thank odin for yiddish). Did not vacuum well, did not clean well, stained easily. The one thing it was good at (fair is fair) pointy furniture legs/feet did not leave deep pock marks. Try cork for a comfortable an inexpensive floor surface.
	the cost isn't bad	1 Relevance	22 years ago	DavidDC	General discussion
	the cost isn't bad I've got a approximate quote of about 450 per chair, if I provide the fabric. I definitely plan on going neutral. I think it's the safest thing to do, given the number of times I've changed the color scheme in my home. I'm leaning toward a pleather (Paul Brayton) I saw on ebay in a light brown. It's neutral, and the chairs in that color will go nicely with my white sofa. David

	RE: DA old timers	1 Relevance	7 years ago	Spanky	Off topic
	Very nice, SDR! Love the orange grommets. I've seen that kind of thing for threading your device cords down to wall outlets. I would think they'd come in more colors than three! Nice precision joints, too. Impressive! I don't know what that P is for, either. Weird. The liner is molded to fit the ice bucket exactly. I don't know how it's held in. I am not going to ever put ice in this so it's kind of a moot point for me. And yes, that's it on 1st Dibs--do you like the lid? I think it's a logical finish but it also looks a bit clunky to me. Or something. No offense to anyone who likes it, of course.

	Why can't you post a photo... Why can't you post a photo of the whole thing if you can post photos of parts of it? Are you just dicking everyone around?
