Coffee Table Made From Old Computer Parts

David Maloney hat sich einen ziemlich schicken Kaffee-Tisch aus alten Mainboards, Controllern und sonstigen Nerdizzle Kram gebaut. Want!

It’s mainly made up of boards/drives from old Intergraph 6000 series machines built in the late 80s early 90s. They had nice big boards. It was a good way to keep around my first real computer after I could no longer find parts to keep it working, an Intergraph 6880 with Edge II graphics. I learned computer modeling, rendering and animation on it and think of it as a mentor. There are also old 2800 baud modem parts and other random parts collected over the years.No real pattern other than just getting it all to fit together like a puzzle. The LED lights along the perimeter worked out better that I had hoped. I have it wired so it automatically goes on when it gets dark.

    Thanks for featuring my work. It was a fun project. Unfortunately you can hardly see the table anymore as it is almost always covered with kids toys and books. :)
