CNC ROUTED TABLE for marbles, kids and modern design

Remember marble run? I used to love that game game as a kid. It was like lincoln logs with a purpose, and i would always build one end so the marbles would just drop out the bottom instead of finishing the course, then of course I would have to search high and low for the marbles that didn’t make it to the end so I could send them all down again. WHich is why I am in love with this table designed by Tineke Beunders and Nathan Wierink of ontwerpduo. They designed this table, as well as all the elements of Room 222 in the famous Dutch Lloyd hotel in Amsterdam, to provide creative interaction with beautiful design for children and of course their parents. This table was engineered and produced by a CNC router, which I’m hoping to design something with very soon. Check out all the elements of Room 222 at Ontwerpduo.com.
