Guys, I was blown away by this.

While browsing a copy of Cigar Aficianado (while smoking a stogie), I came across a brief advertisement on a designer who designs furniture from old aircraft parts from the boneyards.

Here's the link: De Astis Designs

The Aileron Desk and Club Chairs (prop air intake & A7 Corsair Canopy) are my favorites. Would love to have them for my office.

Nice one Bryan, love it. The Turbine table and P-51 intake in the chair are particularly inspiring, grinning ear.........to..........ear :-)
