TENSEGRITY TABLE - Back order - From www.stirlingengine.co.uk

PLEASE NOTE! The Steve Mould youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0onncd0_0-) created lots of interest in this product. We sold all our stock in a few hours. A new batch is being finished off and will be ready by the end of January. We also preparing to machine another batch in February.

Everybody seems keen to order and get their place in the production queue! Hence I’ve decided to start allowing backorders. I’ll update this page with production progress.

UPDATE: 12th Feb 2021. We are sending out lots of Tensegrity tables every day. We expect to have about 50% of the backorders sent out in the next few days.

UPDATE: 11th March 2021. We making good progress with backorders. The next big batch will be ready in 2 to 3 weeks. That should clear the remaining backorders.

UPDATE: 8th April 2021. Large number of tensegrity tables are going out now. UPDATE: 17th April 2021. Big batch complete and going out. This will clear almost all backorders.

Tensegrity is short for tensional integrity which was coined by Buckminster Fuller. It is sometimes known as a floating compression structure. The really fun thing about this table is that at the initial glance it appears to be floating in mid-air. Yet you can use it like a normal table. Place something on the tensegrity table and it appears just to sit on the table floating in mid-air.

Quite mesmerizing to see.

So what is it? Well a conventional table is under compression, increasing the weight on the table increases compression on the legs. A tensegrity table works differently. Although it has some components under compression, they are in a network of parts in tension. In our Tensegrity there is a central cable that is holding the top half up. The cable is under tension. The cables around the periphery keep the table surface central. Cutting any of the cables would result in the top part of the table falling over.

Our CNC machine Tensegrity table is supplied as a kit.
