This is a coffee table layout I built several years ago. We still have it and it still looks the same as it did the day I finished it. I don't remember if I ever showed this on the "other" site. I had forgotten about it until I was doing a similar YouTube search just now and it popped up. So, just for kicks, for those that remember it, here it is again...

The music was some generic clip I selected off of their site to fit the length of my video. The glass has been removed to reduce reflections in the video.

I love that layout. Because of it, I keep going to the thrift store hoping to find a old coffee table that I can do it to. Someday I'll catch one.

I've found several since then that I thought could be modified to work but for some reason the finances are never available when the tables are! After I finished that one, I thought I could build 'em and sell 'em. Boy did that idea fly like a lead balloon.

Nice work on the layout and nice work on the video.
Interestingly, with two clicks on "related videos" I was somehow watching a japanese woman put mentos in a bottle of cola while sitting in a bathtub.

I love YouTube with about the same amount of affection I have for quicksand. Once it sucks you in, your lost for hours.

As usual, I'm fascinated with that coffee table layout.
Gee, I'm in the middle of making a TV cabinet, I wonder if I could incorporate a Z scale layout in in somehow... Nope, it'll never be as nice as what you've done.
And as for You tube, I avoid it as I do all other "social network" sites, and usually wind up there only when someone sends me a link to something. I guess for the same reasons you stated, once you're in, it's hard to get out...

But isn't
this a social network site?

THAT is TRICK. Very nice, what music did you use in that video? That's really relaxing.

Thanks. That's the third one I've built. I don't remember what the music was. I just picked something off of their site that had a time somewhat equal to my video and plugged it in.
