My DIY Zed themed coffee table

[mattross1313]

After watching Top Gear for many years (The good UK one ) I always fancied having an engine themed coffee table for the lounge. So I started to collect up some parts based on the 350Z I owned at the time. I finished this project a fair while back now, but I'm new to the forum so thought I'd pop up a few quick pictures

I used a VQ Block as the main core of the table - powder coated in hyper silver with all machined faces mirror polished. On each corner of the block I mounted rods with mirrored pistons to rest the glass on. Under the Block I fitted 3 valves heads each side to use as feet.

I also fitted some under table LEDs for a little light, but having the wires on show bugged me. To resolve this I designed and made a stainless steel plate to cover over the water pump hole and use existing mounting threads. Also added a switch to this for lights.
