BIG CHIP'S BADASS PLYWOOD SKULL
You've probably guessed (if you've even thought about it at all) that we don't own all of the machines used to make our furniture. Press brake? No, sir. Water-jet? Are you fucking crazy? CNC? Nope. For that last bit—Computer Numeric Controlled cutting of our MDF Roadrunner chair and new MDF Roadrunner stools—we send the CAD files to a local shop called Denver Woodworking. We went down there today to preview our new stools (totally awesome) and saw this mind-blowing piece. It's a laminated plywood skull made with incredible attention to detail. According to Chip, the CNC-whiz who's working on it, it'll be part of a 12-foot full skeleton he's making for his lawn in time for next Halloween. The skull alone is about two-feet tall and totally dialed in every respect. Damien Hirst should stick to pickling sharks—when it comes to skulls he can't touch our man Chip.
