  • Is there a specific name for a table hanging from the ceiling?

    I have plans to build a table that will be hanging from the ceiling.
    Do they have a specific name? Google searches with: table AND ceiling, “table hanging from the ceiling”, hanging + ceiling + table lead nowhere…
    Any hints?

    Won’t everything fall off? Or are you moving to Australia?

    Try “suspended table”. That produces a couple of possibles.

    Oh – and try looking for “Suspended Table”, US Patent 4815396 covers a version.

    Won’t it sway a bit? There must be a maximum weight too I guess?

    This is a floating table. Same general idea.

    I think you should let WCA build it though, that would be far more fun.

    I like the idea of a suspended tables as being able to pull it up out of the way seems a good idea if space is an issue. But some strong anchoring required otherwise swaying will occur which would be problematic….

    thanks guys 😀
    It’s not to dine on but to have in my entrance and I have been toying with this idea since I was 7 (first read about it in a belgian comics probably unknown to anyone here)
    So basically not a lot of weight on it, biking kit + crash helmet max.

    Thanks

    I will use a very big central pole.
    I don’t really want it to move.
    Will look like that:

    Went to a club last week that had the decks on a platform suspended from the ceiling.

    Looked cool, and presumably stops the needles from jumping from vibrations.

    Where is that? I’ve DJ’d somewhere (maybe in Leeds?) that had the decks suspended like that – it was crap. 😀

    It’s Club Zu in Birkenhead.

    Recently been refurbished it was called Stairways or something.

    One of my mates was putting a night on there.
