Old Wood Ladder And Glass Coffee Table
well, i had an old ladder that no one in their right minds would use as a ladder, so i had to find something to do with it… there are lots of upcycling ladder tricks out there; i wanted to find something no one else has done with a wood ladder, so i folded it into itself and made it a coffee table. i topped it with a ridiculously awesome piece of 1/2" tempered glass. 'nuff said. the table is about 18" high and the glass is 24"X36" wide. shipping will be via greyhound express. that means you'll need to pick it up at your nearest greyhound bus station. i'll need your phone # so they can call you. local pickups and delivery is always an option (and preferred!) contact me to work out arrangements prior to purchase so i can edit shipping expenses. i would also consider selling it without the glass if it needs to ship far. you could buy glass locally. contact me if that interests you. thanks for looking, tim

Tim Sway Perspectives
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 you will find more than one hundred video of things i've made.

Oct 19, 2018Tim is super fun and easy to work with. He had lots of creative suggestions for our project (turning my grandfather's WWII trunk into a coffee table), and the finished product was completely perfect, even better than we hoped for!

Jun 22, 2018This was my first experience with Custom Made, and it rocked! Tim did such an awesome job on the bass. He finished way ahead of his projection and kept it at a very reasonable price. The bass itself is beautiful; it plays so well. I’ve owned many basses in my day, but this is by far the most unique. I cannot recommend Tim Sway Perspectives enough. His communication throughout the project was fantastic; I received updates regularly. He was very open to my input, which was great. Tim definitely wants the customer to be satisfied. If you want a really cool bass [or guitar], look no further. Do yourself a favor and let Tim Sway make it for you.
