Pinball Machine Converted Into Home Office Desk

$2,000

Desks

this was one of my favorite jobs ever - and we believe the first of its kind. i turned a vintage charlie's angels pinball machine into a desk for a toy collector's "man cave." i was lucky enough to do it again with a "lectronamo" desk. they keep getting better, and i have three more pinball machines ready to be transformed. i also made a separate printer stand from a cocktail arcade machine and fashioned a computer stand out of leftover pinball parts and some new plywood. the backglass was turned in to wall art and is illuminated with LED lights. the playfield of the pinball machine and arcade game glass are also illuminated with LED lights. you can see these pieces made here: http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=kJMy3DIpXrg http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=GUEL-aAtP7I -tim

  • Long-time member

    A Maker who has been a valued part of this community for several years.

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

I am an independent artist/artisan working exclusively in reclaimed, recycled, upcycled and found materials.

i make the useless useful again. i make worthless things priceless.

from conception, to making it to sweeping up, i am a one-man operation - by design.

my work is not for everyone. my customers are people who want truly unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that are made fairly and ethically from locally salvaged materials - with as small a footprint as i can muster.

i will make and ship things all over the united states (depending on size) but i prefer to work regionally (Boston to NYC and thereabouts).

listed on this page are some pieces i've made for others and some pieces i have available for sale. but what i really want to do is design and make what YOU want. let's do it!

be good,
tim

oh yeah, at youtube.com/timsway you will find more than one hundred video of things i've made.

    There are not enough stars to give Tim. He is incredibly talented, thoughtful, considerate, communicative, timely, caring, and creative. The ultimate testimony to him is my current search for another project to work on together. He is a true pro and a genuinely good person.

    Tim made me a desk that fit into my bay window space exactly how I envisioned. He was quick, communicative, and precise. He is a top quality craftsman who can be relied on.

    Tim was an awesome maker to work with! He took the idea, ran with it right away, and more than met the needs of my accelerated timeline. He was extremely communicative and kept me up to date at all times throughout the project. Couldn't have had a better experience!
