| ... burning for 100 years is drawing only 4 watts of power (and also is never turned off, so it doesn't experience any thermal shocks or current surges). Lowering the temperature makes a DRAMATIC difference in the life of the bulb, but it makes a less dramatic difference in the power consumption, and it makes a large difference in the light output. For example, a typical 100-watt bulb: At 120 volts (standard, hot filament): 1000-hour life 100 watts power consumption 1700 lumens At 100 volts (long life, cooler filament): 10000-hour life (10 times longer life!) ... | |||||
| It was made by Contemporary Shell Inc. | 1 Relevance | 15 years ago | Bonefish Bob | General discussion | |
| It was made by Contemporary Shell Inc. Probably very late 70ties or early 80ties. Contemporary Shell Inc was based in Hempstead NY and produced works for many designers including Arthur Umanoff. Don't know if this stool was one of his designs but can't rule it out. One big difference between this stool and an original Knoll is in the chrome work. I am fairly certain all the Knoll products were polished stainless steel. The Contemporary Shell stools have a thin chrome plate which will peel off, especially around the foot ring. Will have to say these stools ar ... | |||||

| . Yeah I had a look, the bronze body ones are so nice on the eye I almost couldn't care about using them but I tried a veritas years ago and it was fine, pretty good value for money, about 700 for those 3. Now that I've got a soft floor and that cast iron is less brittle there'll be no broken planes anymore either, whats the difference between a scraper plane and just using card scrapers? Control? I'm a relative newbie to all this handwork. Mmmm, maybe I do want one, ka ching! | |||||

| seems similar Riki, You may be on to something. Mark seems to spend money with impunity and this is a good start. Good & Wood and Gucci desire and possession are also a excellent sign. I think a difference may be the "Ivey League" look compared to the "made guy" look (and probably attitude). I will tell my mother and father that I may have found the good one. On thread: the panels pictured still suck. | |||||

| Adam, I absolutly want... Adam, I absolutly want feedback about my work. I share your feelings about the BS artspeak that is thrown around in school, but I assure you I truly believe what I have said here. There is a difference between being firm and being rude. You explicitly told me I was not an artist in the fine art sence. That my friend is what riled me a bit. Since when does doing something well make it just craft? I just came out of a sculpture program where 90% of the objects were put together with hot glue and duct tape, but that would of course be ... | |||||

| challenge the belief that what you put in the bin actually gets "recycled" and not, as a school girl in the states discovered, in the bin. Her school project was on recycling the school dinner waste and the kids were tought to seperate their waste in the canteen only for the caretaker to bag it all up and dump it in the same bin round the back!!!!! should be on youtube somewhere! What we all live by is the beleif that the system "takes care of our moral responsibility" once we have disposed of our unwanted items. Interestingly there is a miniscule remark in ... | |||||

| ... many many carved seats on chairs going back millennia. The very slightly concave seats we see on so many older chairs are proof to me that even a slight indentation is appreciated -- enough to keep people coming back for more. There may be a rational explanation for the comfort that a minor shaping of a rigid seat provides: With a dead flat seat, no amount of rearranging oneself is going to make any difference in the way the behind feels. With any shaping at all, some movement to a new posture is going to relieve some areas of flesh and muscle, putting n ... | |||||

There are several subtle differences in the two Herman Miller versions with the leg construction and upholstery being the most obvious. Strange as it seems, the second generation coconut chairs are actually crafted better than the first. Typically, a company looks for ways to make production more streamlined and inexpensive, but the second generation coconut chairs have more detailed, refined constr ... | |||||

| . Heath, was your chair an older one? There may be a significant difference in hardness from early models to later. I can't see your example spot on the base in the photo, its hazy. What did you use for your final round, the stuff that you mentioned? I have subjected motorcycles to some serious abuse and I can tell you that the casings and cover plates are hardened alloys. The chair that I did was first generation and I only did the frame, not the base. It was extremely soft. This is significant to the process needed. On my final stage I tried three differen ... | |||||

| My mother- the-printmaker made sure to inform me of the difference between a print (a hand-made impression on good paper, created or supervised by the artist) and a (photographic) reproduction -- which is so commonly called a "print." Reproductions of fine art -- like this one -- are not to be dismissed; they have brought the work of genius to many more viewers than could the originals, hanging in museums or private collections. But the terms are not interchangeable . . . | |||||
