alaninaustria Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Very unique and interesting, a group in Bavaria, Germany used orginal Me-262 rear fuselage aluminium sheeting (rear fuselage sheeting) that was used after the war as roofing material - to build modern aviation furniture using traditional metal working skills and tools! Unfortunately, mostly in German with a short English explanation: Click Here Cheers Alan Michael931080, Bill Cross, BiggTim and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 If you want something American, of a similar nature, and have a few thousand to burn, go here and start shopping: https://www.boeingstore.com/collections/furniture I'm in for the F-4 Wall Lamp. They actually have some really neat, (somewhat) reasonably priced "widgets" as well. Told my wife I want the J-79 turbine blade as an X-mas present for my office desk.

Wolf Buddee Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 The real question is "how many stools do you need to make a complete 262?" Maybe the guys at Stormbirds at Paine Field would know. My son and I had a tour of their facility a few years ago. What a cool place to visit! Cheers, Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
