The Floyd Leg




The Floyd Leg was an interesting project I came across recently:

The main idea is captioned in the phrase "Create a table from any flat surface."

Basically the idea is that you buy a set of four of these steel legs which can be clamped onto any flat material to create a table. It started out as a kickstarter project where it raised over $250,000 when it's goal was only $18,000.

They are now on sale on the website for $189 for a set of four (to make one table).

The idea of using these legs to make a table with a piece of old wood that you have in the house is one that I like. It gives the freedom to have a table in your house which is chosen and made by you. I believe this adds value to the table, compared to one just bought from a shop. It's personal.

I for one would like a set. The whole idea is great and could be an insight into a future life where everything is reused and recycled. Not only that, but a furtwhere your furniture is designed and made you.
