View Full Version : how about some automotive furniture
and yes i've seen those cool $10000 couches and stuff, but show little stuff you've made yourself
here's my coffeetable for instance
just a Porsche rim and an Audi rim on top of each other.
got them from Pieter and both are bent a little
I putt on a glass plate i had around....
i would have gone with a glass circle but that costs money i don't have

total costs: $0
next is my office chair
the day my old chair broke i got this idea...
i used the old base from the old chair. and screwed on the Recaro...
again costs are: $0 as i had both lying around going no-where

i think that's not too bad for my little no budget student room huh? :D
show me your stuff (i know Marc has some)
Hmm, i used to have some car-furniture, but not anymore...
Here are some old pics:

I know it's normally called 'attic', but in Chris' new appartment it's an extra room on the same floor. Not my kind of attic..
Chris, explain! ;)

well, if on the contruction plans that "room" was called a room, the rent price would be higher, (because of the extra room) so the did not make a door in that "room" so now the room is always open. And my appartment is on the highest floor (the 2nd :D ) they have gave it a creative name, attic (zolder) The attic connects the bedroom to the living room, and is about 20 m2.
I hope that I have written this so that you can understand it, my english is not that good...sorry.....
also on the wishlist:

We also used to have a traffic sign as coffeetable (diameter +/- 80cm) and a trafficlight from a train crossover(? NL: spoorwegovergang) to give our livingroom some disco 'hooker'like atmosphere.
Many tourists coming to Norway (especially Germans) steal the moose crossing signs we have at the roads here, and use them for coffee tables.
