	... less time and/or be less expensive. This is especially true with regards to pre-production models and computer aided tool making. Of course...this site highlights furniture in particular, and in that field the advances of computer technology are less obvious in many cases. This is due to the materials used, consumer preferences and transportation concerns. For example, wood is widely used in furniture. Wood is almost only used in board form, therefore its' end products tend to be rectilinear. Transportation limits designs because swooping organic forms ...
	part two	1 Relevance	23 years ago	koen	General discussion
	part two It seems difficult to over-estimate the influence of technology on design, and yet to expect a major cultural shift in those areas that were defining for the modern mouvement: architecture, furniture and domestic products is over-optimistic. The reasons are simple. The production technology in these areas has only changed marginally and both designers and manufacturers have been reluctant or unable to incorporate technological advances in their products. Allow me to explain. First of all the major areas of technological development have been in elec ...

	@mark737 that frame looks more what you find here in the netherlands and then the other frame There were not many manufacturing company's in the netherlands due to the interest in vintage design most is now now know you very brown table is difficult to attribute to one of those company's. therefor the very knowledgeable Hans from Z-tijl couldnt nor vanOns (who i dont know direct i will chek his site if his knowlege is sound) and will look a round a bit Its not Vroom&Dreesmann , teefelen, topform , Van Oss, Coja and certainly!!! not Fristho
	RE: Recently acquired?	1 Relevance	6 years ago	mvc	General discussion
	@cdsilva Shit, I messed up the table, so no price for me. But I have doubts about the Grete Jalk attribution, even though the tag is on it, because I think it difficult to believe that renowned designers have no qualms about copying others, because the resemblance is striking.

	... of our tools and the technology of the toolmakers. The influence of 3D computer tools are all around us. Not that it was impossible to make organic forms before, but, unless it was done in a relatively simple tool, like stamping steel for car bodies, organic forms were difficult to make. I remember asking for a parabolic transition between two flat surfaces (instead of a radius) and the toolmaker invited me behind the milling machine and showed the three wheels you could turn to move the steel and said: If you tell me how to turn them in order to get a para ...
	Berlin Chair	1 Relevance	23 years ago	koen	General discussion
	Berlin Chair This is a difficult one...unless you have some kind of picture to assemble the pieces. Let me try anyway. All the panels are 18 mm thick. The backrest is 54 cm wide and 107 cm high. Between the 71 and 74 cm level you glue a horizonal 3x3 cm piece 54 cm long. On the right side (when you face the chair) it should exceed the edge of the backrest by 24 cm. On the left side (on a 90 degree angle OF COURSE) you connect (with dowels) a panel of 54 x 29 cm that exceeds the backrest by 3cm. That horizontal panel is supported in the front by a vertical le ...
	Hello Adam and Koen,	1 Relevance	23 years ago	essai	General discussion
	... so biographies are more problematic for us. Another difficulty is related to the time that it takes to obtain authorizations to obtain and to publish images but we can manage that. The list of missing designers is so long that it would be interesting to make a list of priorities. According to you, which are the designers that need to be added quickly? Concerning the selection we already have on the index, we accept Koen's critic. We sometimes find it difficult to say 'no' to young designers who insist to be present in the index. For the moment, we don't hav ...
	RE: Identification chair	1 Relevance	6 years ago	Cor7	Identification
	Thank you for your responses! Very interesting. I was planning to sell the chair, as my apartment is really small and I don't have any room to store it. But I have absolutely no idea what price range I should sell this for... Do you have an idea? I know it is difficult based on a picture. Thanks in advance.
	RE: Help ID these mid century lounge chairs	1 Relevance	6 years ago	Milo	Identification
	... ID on them. I have searched some more and have seen the sculpted 90's and what appears to be a false mitre on some of Robsjohn's other chairs and items, but very difficult with quality of posted pictures and not much available with close ups of his joinery. So I'm asking where would you go from here?
	RE: Help ID these mid century lounge chairs	1 Relevance	6 years ago	Milo	Identification
	And last one here all photos uploaded I'm focused on the joinery and so on more then anything I'm having a difficult time seeing this type of his work in all the lounge chairs I've found on the web, but no shortage of this joinery on many of his other pieces including the slipper chair which I see as a sibling to the lounge chair. Would love to hear what you think. Attachment: image.png
	RE: Is this Sibast ?	1 Relevance	6 years ago	Zephyr	Identification
	@mvc No apology necessary, I am far enough removed from the discussion at this point, that it would be difficult for anyone to know, other than the stalwarts like cd, tktoo, spanky, leif, Herringbone, dr. P, Mark, wesmael, etc. ...besides, you called me back to the conversation, which I do appreciate.
	RE: Wrapping front rail on Wegner CH23	1 Relevance	7 years ago	mychairs63	Repair
	I am having difficulty with the weft of my CH23 Hans Wegner chair.I have reached the point where there are only about 8cm to finish the seat but I realise it is not straight.I mean there is less space to manoeuvre on the side of the chair than on the seat of the chair.It is as if I had tightened too much the weaves (perpendicular) and at the same time I had pushed them back toward the back of the seat.The sides are also tight but seem to be a bit in an oblique line.I do not know if I am making myself very clear but the problem is I have quite a bit of se ...

	... plastic or bronze, it was intended to be replaced when needed but has become difficult for consumers or 'end users' to source since. This part can also be difficult to remove and replace if you are not 'mechanically inclined'. If you are in the EU, I recommend contacting Graham Mancha in the UK for advice and/or spares that will fit your chair. Good luck!
	RE: Wegner CH30	1 Relevance	7 years ago	cdsilva	Repair
	Hi tk, I do indeed have a couple of CH30s (sold two others as restoration projects), as well as a CH23 which has the same backrest connection. Fortunately for me, all of the backrest joints were solid and did not require any tightening. However, there were a few loose screws on the seat of a damaged CH30, so I did a little snooping around. Based on what I could find, you are right, those screw plug caps are sacrificial and are not intended to be reused if you need to take them out to address something underneath. Here are a few photos that do a nice job of ...
