@seawolf This is great!! I hate my current stitching pony where I have to sit on part of the base. My base is wood and it’s always a struggle to find a seat that it won’t scratch up or rip, but is also comfortable.

Do you plan to manufacture or license?

[seawolf]

@Go-For-Chill Thank you! I hate having to sit on the base of my little stitching pony too. I added leather to the bottom of it so it doesn't scratch my chair, but it's not very comfortable for long periods of time. I also have a big one that my father-in-law built for me that sits on the floor, and I much prefer using that one.

Yes, I plan on manufacturing. I need to work out some of the engineering still, but once I have it all dialed in, I'll start sourcing local manufacturers to get these made. They'll be sold under my brand Mascon & ZeeBee Tools.

Getting a patent is no easy task.

True, but it’s a lot easier when you’re starting from a solid idea! You probably know this already but do check in with your attorney before sharing any clever stuff you come up with when you’re fine tuning the engineering.

[seawolf]

@ARNC Great advice. Thank you! All of the clever engineering will be proprietary information, and at some point I may have to submit a utility patent as well.

@seawolf so it‘s a design patent for now?

[seawolf]

@tody yeah, for now. A utility patent is a different animal, and the shape of this thing is what’s most important in this moment. I’ve filed two utility patents before and they’re on a whole other level.

Spun Chair made in Italy by Magis
The most fun chair in existence!

[Mizmazzle]

@Anesthetist cool!! Love to see someone sitting in it. Is it fun and comfy??

@Mizmazzle They've got them on the street in Santa Monica. They are...disconcerting to sit in.

[Mizmazzle]

Pretty cool!

I finished this media console/credenza today. I have about 100 hours into this thing, and I'm exhausted. But I'm damn proud of it!

That’s absolutely beautiful! You should be very proud of what you’ve accomplished.

[seawolf]

@Brandrea Thanks! I'm drinking my tea and staring at it now

[Anesthetist]

@Mizmazzle it is surprisingly comfortable and a TON of fun. You can really get moving!

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf holy shit man!! That credenza is exquisite!! Is this a recent completion?

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Thank you! I made it about a year and a half ago.

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf do you have a turntable and receiver on it now? Curious what it looks like in action.

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Here you go!

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf truly impressed.
