Why not motorized?

I would totally crush my fingers.

Why not motorized?

It would lose its charm, don't you think? Like those fancy wine bottle opener vs old fashion cantilever-type.

This might be a dupe of this vid:

Also very similar to this one:

Why not motorized?

Why should it be motorized? That would be pretty silly and probably compromise the design.

Do we really need ANOTHER one of these videos? I thought it was bad enough we let the second one through, but three?

*discuss

This video is being sent to Sift Talk for discussion - discuss requested by MarineGunrock.

Technically, one of those videos has been killed, so there are only two videos of that table on this site. And, to be honest, I don't think this can be considered a dupe anymore than two separate documentaries about the same movie can be considered a dupe, or two videos covering the same event from different perspectives can be considered a dupe. They're simply not dupes. My two cents.

yeeehaa man, Round and round, the table goes.......rules rules rules...blah blah blah....Personally, I could watch 17 videos of this from different angles, and never tire of it...
*return

Returning this video from Sift Talk - return requested by choggie.

"I would totally crush my fingers."....far worse is closing it naked and half-cocked after a party.....The Painful Realization of Precision Mill Work....

Saw this, want the table.

I can't help but wonder about the wisdom of having such a precisely engineered thing made of wood and put on a boat where it will soak up moisture and swell.
