@@WindrunnerB4 ohh did he? Or did he tell you he’s “pretty sure”. Also that’s not the only thing I said. You’re pretty bad at trying to be passive aggressive.
Have you guys thought of offering different colors of sand, such as black or red? Or even a synthetic sand could come in any color. Perhaps even diamond reflective type of materials. The simple version of this would be fine glitter, I suppose.
Black would practically negate the purpose of having patterns in the sand. You'd have to use a light source above to see the patterns. As for red, simple - set all LEDs to red. You'd have to dye sand or find a suitable material in red. Dye fades. Stick to LEDs.
I swear I’ve seen a bunch of these tables that already has LED lights in it. But could you imagine black sand with some sprinklings of metallic glitter? It would look like space.
One way many customers conceal the power supply is by setting a rug underneath the table, and feeding the cord through a hole in the rug. The power supply is heat safe, and should not pose any issues.
When you say the table will come with about double the needed sand is that for all size tables? Is there a distance from the edge the sand should not be, or it can touch the edges of the inner part And do the tables come with different country plugs, for example I am from New Zealand, or will I need to buy a international plug adaptor Thank you
Hi! Thank you for your interest! 1. Yes all the tables come with extra sand. 2. The sand can go out to the edge, but the ball will only circle out a certain amount and there can be a build up of sand over a long period of time. 3. Yes as we do ship international to certain countries we make sure that our tables comes with the proper plugs for each.
I can't see why it couldn't run 24/7. There is a sleep mode in the app so you don't have to have it running in the middle of the night. Glass top is resting on glass bumpers.
Maybe I missed it, but it would really help to know the dimensions of each table design. I was trying to decide which table I wanted but couldn't tell the difference in size. If it'll fit in the space I have for the table. Please, include measurements to aid in ordering.

Someone has asked this, but it does not have an answer: I have a similar decorative device and my biggest complaint is the noise of the servos and the dragging sound of the steel bearing. Are you able to give us more details about what sounds and volume of sound we can expect from the motors? A raw footage video with a decibel meter would be a great response.
We have designed our tables to be as quiet as possible. Care has been taken in the selection of motors and drivers to ensure there are nearly silent in operation, with measures to attenuate the sound of the ball on the sand. We have played with a few similar devices and know how distracting the noise can be. The slower the speed, the quieter the motors, and at full speed our motors are at 25 Db. We hope this helps!

I gotta say it’s an amazing invention, really cool, I’m a bit disappointed by the table’s size versus price tag though, I think it’s a bit expensive, 1700 the metal version, 7k plus for the wooden model, I really wanted one but I can’t afford to pay that much money.

Hi! Thank you for your interest in our tables. We are in the process of finding a way attach the glass to the table, but with the need to remove the glass we have yet to find something.
cool but the wood venear looks kinda cheap or something, maybe a stone type surface. in all the pirctures, the wood venear makes it look gimicky like wood veneer on a high tech oil defuser. maybe have higher end model material and design wise, that you can push it more towards a artistic sculpure that is also a table. these look more like tables with sand thing inside. just my 2cents
i see some other shaped models those look better, i still think it needs to me pushed more sculture /art, because most people that buy expensive tables already look at table as a form or sculpure. so making a expensive kenetic table that then without the kenetic sculpure would look like a cheap piece of furniture is a bit gimmicky looking for lack of a better term.
I really would like one but the exposed underside would be a problem with cats in the house. They need to enclose that before I invest that much money into a coffee table. Missed opportunity imho.
Ngl its looks amazing but i dont like the fact that underneath dosent have a false bottom too it it would stop dust build up underthere and also if you have pets they are gonna ruin it for sure
My guess, from when he said "if it hits a high point and stops moving just smooth out the sand" is that if you put in too much the sand the ball won't be able to move.
Love these, BUT, being a pet owner I am concerned about the bottom being open. I see that being a danger spot for pets and a place where lots of pet hair and dust could build up and fowl the mechanism. I would reccomend some sort of bottom, even cardboard to protect the motor.

@@yeatus0121 dont need one, but if you like to make one I can help you step by step on how to use an Arduino or a raspberry pi (like used here I noticed that because its bodged underneath the surface and was exposed) to make one its very easy, you need one SoC like the aforementioned, then connected a driver to it(is a PCB that sends power to motors) and 2 motors for your two axis (x and y) then the main idea is to glue a magnet on the axis rods , write a simple program in python (or any other language python is just more noob friendly and math friendly) by having it move randomly there are also mathematical formulas that can draw other more interesting shapes and that's it if you dont mind it being ugly and having a huge cord to plug it in you can make a similar table like the one shown above with about 50$ and a few hours of your time mainly spend on setting up the motors by calibrating them via software and for coding the movement of the ball
Frank Mayer Studios ‘Expensive’ adjective, costing a lot of money. Synonyms; costly, high priced, high-cost. 2-7 grand for a table fits all of those. Ferrari or not, that’s a bit pricey for a table. I.E. expensive.
@@The1MrE1980 I respect your opinion but one question, do you have a company ?, especially a manufacturing one ? price is not dictated by only the cost of materials, they are way more things involved. Also remember one thing, a price is high or low depending on who is looking at it. For some people the price of that table barely reaches the point of pocket change. Just sayin.
@@frankmayerstudios2161 No, he can say it is overpriced for what it is. Doesn't have anything to do with if he can afford one or not. I CAN afford one - but seeing how cheap this build is ( no bottom - ugly cord - glass that just sits on top and isn't built in?) it IS too much money for what it is, not to mention that metal framing is pretty ugly.

@@yeatus0121 dont need one, but if you like to make one I can help you step by step on how to use an Arduino or a raspberry pi (like used here I noticed that because its bodged underneath the surface and was exposed) to make one its very easy, you need one SoC like the aforementioned, then connected a driver to it(is a PCB that sends power to motors) and 2 motors for your two axis (x and y) then the main idea is to glue a magnet on the axis rods , write a simple program in python (or any other language python is just more noob friendly and math friendly) by having it move randomly there are also mathematical formulas that can draw other more interesting shapes
and that's it if you dont mind it being ugly and having a huge cord to plug it in you can make a similar table like the one shown above with about 50$ and a few hours of your time mainly spend on setting up the motors by calibrating them via software and for coding the movement of the ball
What even is the point of this? I'm not gonna spend that much money to make my table look nice if it's cheaply made or not...
cat snack It’s fucking cool

Cool but way too expensive
Then you won't have one. How many people would love to buy a Ferrari but can't afford it. It is not expensive, it's just something you can't afford.
Frank Mayer Studios ‘Expensive’ adjective, costing a lot of money. Synonyms; costly, high priced, high-cost. 2-7 grand for a table fits all of those. Ferrari or not, that’s a bit pricey for a table.
I.E. expensive.
@@The1MrE1980 I respect your opinion but one question, do you have a company ?, especially a manufacturing one ? price is not dictated by only the cost of materials, they are way more things involved. Also remember one thing, a price is high or low depending on who is looking at it. For some people the price of that table barely reaches the point of pocket change. Just sayin.
@@frankmayerstudios2161 just asking do u own company or som shit?
@@frankmayerstudios2161 No, he can say it is overpriced for what it is. Doesn't have anything to do with if he can afford one or not. I CAN afford one - but seeing how cheap this build is ( no bottom - ugly cord - glass that just sits on top and isn't built in?) it IS too much money for what it is, not to mention that metal framing is pretty ugly.
Just what I always wanted. A coffee table with a trip hazard in the form of a power chord.
If you’re not smart enough to hide a cord under a rug, then I assume you don’t have a job good enough to afford one.
I can tell he’s done a rail or two in his life time. Sniff sniff cutting up that sand like a pro
They need to fire the audio guy Jesus Christ this is impossible to listen to. Mic has no gate or filter at all. Every little noise is peaking out my speakers. That box cutter noise was driving me crazy
A $75 Amazon end table with a $150 3d printer…. $3000 please
Everything about this table looks cheap cheap cheap.
yeah quality is not the point, the sand is
@@bryanwells4063 that’s dumb. If I’m spending this much on a table I want a nice table not just a gimmick
