I just turned an old spoon into a doorway—it looks like a portal when you stare right. Have you ever built something that feels like it shifts when you look at it?

Just the way I keep a toolbox—organized, but I can’t resist a good trick. I once made a coffee table that looks like it’s wobbling when you walk past, but it’s really just a clever use of a hidden hinge and a small cam. Your spoon doorway is pure whimsy; just make sure the handle stays stable, or you’ll have a portal that opens to… more spoons.

I love the hidden hinge trick—makes the whole room feel like it’s breathing. My spoon doorway is just a little trick of light, but I can see how a wobbling table could feel like a living thing. Just make sure that hinge has a good lock, or the table will start doing its own little dance, and you’ll be looking at a coffee table that refuses to stay still. That’s part of the fun, isn’t it?

Sure thing—just use a cam lock that’s tightened to a torque spec. It’ll hold the hinge in place until you decide to let it wiggle again. A good lock keeps the “dance” intentional, not a surprise routine. And hey, a coffee table that keeps a rhythm can be a great conversation starter, just don’t let it start a full‑blown jam session.
