That's yacht stuff! Anybody want to guess what one costs? My guess is $100-150K depending on your choice of woods.

FOB the manufacturer, I'd bet. Installation is available at a moderate cost of only $1000.00 per foot of Yacht.

That may be a little over the top but not by much. I wonder how many of them they sell per year? Just the mechanism must cost a fortune, notice how the apron drops and then returns?

Not that much guys:

The average price of a table is between £25,000 and £35,000 ($49,700 and $69,600).
Each commission is individually priced.

Re: Think I'll Just Build One Of These!


I saw that a while ago, it's cool but now I'm starting to dislike it, do you see how many times he shows how it works, is that really necessary? Can you imagine if you knew someone that had one, every time you're at their house you'd have to see a demonstration of the table, maybe several times if there was someone new there that hadn't seen it before, might not be so bad the first few times but I can see myself avoiding the table owners house, the novelty has worn off for me. Plus I see fingers getting pinched somehow.

Very nice, but that level of precision, with all the cam and lever links, would be painful!

Then again, sell 5 or 6 a year...

Re: Think I'll Just Build One Of These!


Next time I'm in the market for a 125' yacht, I'll give them a call.

One can't help but appreciate the design and work that goes into it but, when you're half-way between Bermuda and the Canary Islands and the thing gets stuck in mid spin...who you gonna call? Salt air is great for all those metal parts.


I hope to have such problems...lol.
