Nostalgic Mixtape Table

Hand crafted by designer Jeff Skierka, the Mixtape table is a 12:1 scale replica of the real thing. Talk about having a conversation piece in your house. It was made out of reclaimed maple and walnut wood with a plexiglass top which is five years in the making.

Skierka spared no detail, the notched gears are made from short dowel rods, the four holes that hold the tape in the player line the edge of the table, the clear window in the center is cut out, even the inner rectangle, where a label would be, is recessed. Dark, reclaimed walnut wood has been cut into a smooth narrow strip to represent the actual tape, complete with round sections that emulate the tape coils in the center. via
