I looked at the video, and have to say not a single customer of mine would go near that table. That aside...I think I like the idea and the craftsman's execution was very good. Two thumbs up ! By the way ,,I was born in Oak Harbor.  Cheers  Rob

I'm surprised that more members didn't   comment on this guys creativity and fabrication. There is something happening here that is noteworthy ....I certainly see it....and believe me it is all around all of us.  Rob

I agree, Rob, while I appreciate the craftsmanship the actual piece doesn't do much for me.  Eye of the beholder and all that. ;D

Some of the colors did not do much for me,but when it looked like red hot embers,that looked nice.

Very nice piece but the lights detract from the natural beauty.  It could have a place in a commercial establishment or bar etc though.    Still, very nice work.

My son (11), had the same response - the red and orange was neat but didn't like the purple/blue/green.  Same here.

I like it.
I would try and have it flash between red, orange and yellow to look like fire.
Looks like the center is filled with charred pices.

Fascinating concept and execution.  I bet that it looks good w/o the lights turned on.

I think it's very cool and looks to be beautifully made. I feel targeting the right buyer a guy could do quite well with something like this.
Personally, as a stand alone table it wouldn't work for me, but if you could go in and affordably make something like this that fit into the décor of a night club or ski lodge it may be a huge hit.
Where I live it would get a 3 second glance from folks trying to get a stool at the bar.
