	The one weird thing about thi... The one weird thing about this piece of mine is that it doesn't have the Copco Michael Lax marking on the bottom and that the bottom is completely enameled with the color of the whole pan as opposed to being exposed raw cast iron like all the other pieces I found online. Does this mean mine is a later or earlier version?

	One thing you can do without... One thing you can do without being "frivolous or antagonistic" is to ask a question about the item. This way any person that views the item can see the question. He can't report you for asking a question.

	I find the glue thing really ... I find the glue thing really interesting, its awful the way some manufacturers skimp on the glue, they actually mix things like rice flour into the glue to compensate for poor moulds and save money.

	from every thing that i h... from every thing that i have seen they a re made real well and the cool thing with them is they come with 17 great colors. They are supposedly made on the same presses that Herman Miller used in there California plant, and from what there ads say the same man who made them in the 1950s got them up in running for Modernica, ( g-d help him, i am surprised he is still alive after fooling with that evil fiberglass fibers all those years,) I have seen lots of the modernica shells and if you like the fibers running through them, like the originals i would go for them, I am so unimpressed with the poly plastic that Herman miller reintroduced last year, they are light and flimsy so, if i was the sole judge on this one i would say advantage Modernica on this one. Some of the chairs i have seen have some issues and when i called the company they say that is the way they are cause they are all hand made, some have imperfections some do not, and a lot of them have a light film around them, so if you have the chance go buy the store and hand pick yours out.

	"the odd thing is why didn't... "the odd thing is why didn't they accept the buyers 10k? pangs of guilt perhaps? admission of a copy?" This is the big question. They never made any reps that it was a Noguchi sculpture. If they know its fake, why not take the 10K and let the purchaser be on the hook. Someone out there must be telling them it may be real. Essentially, it seems they're leaving the 10K on the table for the possibility of a gigantic payday. Interesting gamble. Makes me think there is some possibility it is, indeed, authentic, no?
	The thing under the TV...	2 Relevance	15 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	The thing under the TV... ...looks like it might be nice. The rest looks like kind of generic 50s-60s stuff sold in U.S. furniture stores. I have Sears and Montgomery Ward catalogs from that era and they have stuff like that, too. It's very hot now in certain circles. Apartmenttherapy.com shows a lot of that sort of furniture and decor. It doesn't have staying power, though. But if you can resell some of it and trade up to fewer, nicer pieces, you'll have a good thing going. Oh, I like the wood armchair with the square cushions, too.

	Sure thing, didn't know if... Sure thing, didn't know if over saturation would be an issue of contention. Thanks for the interest, I've really been wanting to see if anyone had ever heard of it. I think it was purchased and used for an office conference table, but haven't a clue as to its original purpose (dining or office.) My gut kinda says dining. There are more pics at the link. http://picasaweb.google.com/darkenrahl/Furniture

	Looks great! One thing that... Looks great! One thing that bothered me about the original was the cord hanging willy-nilly out there. You've resolved that, though would it have been possible to drill holes in each piece and then have them welded together where the holes intersect. Then maybe the cord could run down the body and out one of the BACK legs. It'd make it just a little bit cleaner. This is just me with my unreasonable distaste for cords though. Seriously looks great!

	not the last thing, but... ...the last thing I found out was better than I thought. Does that count? I bought this handsome little covered tureen three or four years ago for $5 at an auction. I just liked the look of it. It isn't marked. I'd never seen one before and still hadn't seen one until I pulled out an old 1973 Arabia catalog in my pre-moving cleaning spree today. WHOA! There it was in a deep yellow along with some others in big wild patterns. I think i've seen the patterned pieces before but not this particular tureen. I was thinking about giving it to Goodwill at one point. If I had, one of you guys would have snapped it up and I'd be reading someone else's post about it right now. Ha!
	Oh, and another thing	2 Relevance	15 years ago	fastfwd	General discussion
	Oh, and another thing I assume that the vehicle in the photo "that demonstrates good automotive design in my opinion" is the Gallardo, not the MP3. If that's true, I have only one thing to say: No one who's ever tried to see out of a Lambo could call it a "good" automotive design. The vision-blocking A-pillars and flying buttresses are inexcusable design flaws. In my opinion.
	The most important thing...	2 Relevance	15 years ago	koen	General discussion
	The most important thing... The most important thing I wanted to say is that we were deeply moved by all the signs of solidarity we experienced. Although there are so many people that need help more urgently than we do, we are most grateful for all the signs of sympathy, for both encouraging and real help, and for all the kindness. Alix and Patrick went out of there way to organize and coordinate your help and I do not have enough words to thank them and all of you for it. But I will do better than that. When production starts again I will design and produce a limited edition of...something I still have to figure out; to be send to all those who showed that it is still: " better to give than to receive". Thank you all !!

	The Last thing I bought was a Pooja Mantap. A wooden cupboard like thing used to keep idols of gods. We call as prayer room also.I totally loved the teak wood used and the carvings on it. They were amazing.I thought it was costly around 1,25000 INR but worth it.
	New, new thing	2 Relevance	16 years ago	Riki	General discussion
	Have y'all noticed that this website is the new, new thing? I warned you a few weeks ago that MCM is the next big "it" thing to own! Mid century modern and Hollywood Regency are about to explode like chinese antiques did two years ago. You will soon be seeing containers by the freighter-full pulling into SC and TX harbors filled with knockoffs. You guys are about to have a heyday on this website slamming cheap knockoffs. It takes a while in this country (USA) for trends to catch on, but once they reach the general public, it's every man for himself. I tried to tell you that y'all were about to become antique gurus! Scary, huh?
