Pinball Machine Desk

Tim Sway is an artist in Wallingford, Connecticut who specializes in taking old objects and turning them into useful pieces of furniture. Sway acquired a vintage Charlie's Angels pinball machine and turned it into a desk. He first removed the electrical components and cut a hole in one side. Then he added a drawer, a cabinet, and new sheet metal flashing. It's beautiful and classy!

Here's a time-lapse video showing how Sway built the desk.

At first I was very disappointed to see a vintage, collectible pinball game chopped up, but, then. I read that it was in uneconomically poor condition to restore. I guess this still pays homage to the original.

I got an apron for my sister with a nice baby blue and brown design that says "will cook for shoes". She was really happy it concidering that she needed one.

"Yo, Twiggy? What's for dinner?"

"Well, tonight we'll be having fluffed air on a bed of notions, a hot bowl of this wonderful whipped water soup, the main course will be a substantial vestment of french roasted aromas, and perhaps if anyone dares... I've prepared these absolutely delightful guilty thoughts that I thought we'd sit all night and munch on!"
