it would look great in your basement August :D

I was hoping they would have a swiveling chair, but I would be fine with a desk

I agree! The fireplace is awesome! What a brilliant why to use an old mine.

He has chairs, too. No prices. I'd bet a couple grand or so. Shipping would suck, too.

I always thought it was cool how people take those old warplane parts / bombs etc and make furniture out of it.

nice stuff too.

i forget the name of the company but they had a show on TLC or the Discovery channel or something, they would take old airplane parts and make stuff like corporate desks

like these

We wouldn't want to approach such a device wearing a suit of plate armor, would we? :hmmm:

Did you see the fish tank on his site? I'm willing to bet he is asking $5000.00 for the fireplace. I had a nice gas one installed at $4000.00. This is a middle of the line for stoves. His is just very cool.
