Recently finished my 4g63 block computer desk (I am still going to plastidip the blocks silver to make it look a little nicer). Also have my racecar seat computer chair to go along with it. Some of my photography work is hanging on the wall too.

1975 BMW Motorcycle frame coffee table. Hard to get a good photo of this piece.

Conveyor Desk, totally repurposed/reused, even the glass was found in a salvage yard and was the correct size! (Ok, the rubber cushions and hex head bolts were new).

Bar built out of a workbench pulled from the basement of a wire factory in downtown St Louis. Barnwood dividers, doors and shelves added.

Good question. I can see how it looks like that. I have rubber feet mounted to the bottoms of the legs. Obviously they aren't needed on the carpet, but I thought I should have them in case I decide to move it to my wood floors.
