But I wouldn’t suggest sitting in it — it’s an art piece rather than functional furniture. Scott Jarvie made the Clutch Chair out of 10,000 drinking straws after “a microscopic observation of the structural composition of trees and the directional properties of Capillary tubes….” You can view more pictures at the link.

    I can see this becoming a real manufacturing method. Use slightly stronger straws -- drop them into a frame -- electroweld them together --hmm . . .
