Here's a tensegrity table I made recently. The top is cut from 14 gauge and welded to 11 gauge expanded metal, then powder coated. The supports are cut from 3/16" and powder coated. Wood is some black walnut stock I had that I was originally going to be made into gunstocks.

I do have a poor quality YouTube video on the construction although not much plasma cutting action. Not sure about adding redirect links but the channel name is ss2 metal creations.

I wonder if he rides a motorcycle with a busted helmet too? Respect for his fabrication skills, but REPLACE THOSE WORTHLESS GLOVES!

Those are also some very nice welds.

How stable is this table? Id like to build one for a former teacher.

I wouldn't rest a cup of hot coffee on one. I don't care how tight those chains are. The table top will STILL be able to twist both clockwise and counterclockwise, even if only a little. Flexible cables and chains are NOT solid.
