Is that because you've decided to move behind the camera, do some directing, maybe produce a little here and there? I see big things for you in this town, kid. You could be the next Steve Spielberg of car commercials!

I really want that.

I couldn't get the gif to load right on my phone...


This animation makes it look like it's automatic, but it might be a HUGE pain in the ass to open and close... I just don't know.

I wonder if it's motorized or if it's stop motion animation. It's got to be really complicated underneath.

And what happens when people sit at it and lean their elbows on it? Does it move at all?

The mechanism underneath is critical. But I don't know how it needs to be.

It's operated manually by turning, down pressure won't cause movement. It's a one off and if memory serves me right, they charged something like $60,000 for it.
