From D. B. Fletcher Furniture Designs. Quite possibly The. Coolest. Table. Ever.

And, no, I have no idea what they cost. The old saw applies: If you have to ask, you can't afford it.

Definitely the table, but, oh, to spend a week on those yachts. *droolage*

There are other videos at the maker's website, and in one of them, the woman demonstrating appears as if she is handling broken glass or feeding piranhas. I think she 'speaks' from experience. X-D

I saw that a few days ago as well. They claim that the table is a perfect circle at both sizes. I say bull. The arc edges of the pie-shaped pieces are fixed and can't change their radius. So they either correspond to the smaller table radius or the larger one. Perhaps somewhere in between. But not both. I'm thinking, at one size or the other, or both, the table's actual shape is something other than a true circle.

See, that's how my mind works!

You werent the only one thinking in those terms. It's not discernable from the videos, but I wondered if it was 'circular' in the closed or open form. The drawing you see at the start of the video (with the logo) appears 'round' when open. Yet the table does appear round when closed if you look at the 'skirt' underneath for reference. I think if you look carefully in the second half of the video when the table is being closed, you can see 'corners' where the leaves meet, meaning it's 'round when the table is open.

If you notice the table when they close it, there's an outer ring that comes up to cover the edges of the pie shaped leaves. Since that pops up to cover said edges, it makes it a circle when closed. There are probably some discernible gaps between parts of the ring cover and the arcs within if you look close enough.

Um, Honey what is that fucking noise? "Oh that. That's just the asshole neighbors upstairs in 9-G playing with their stupid table again".
