Moog Polymoog Coffee Table

via Kenneth Eldhardt:
"Even though I was informed by another forum member that somebody else chopped the legs down on a Polymoog and called it a coffee table, I'm not sure that really makes a legimate, functional, or asthetically pleasing coffee table. So I did a full Polymoog to coffee table conversion. It was a lot more work than I originally wanted to put into it, but it came out great and really makes a nice coffee table. Later it will go up on ebay. I don't have a decent living room setting, so I'll have to take it somewhere to get better pics in a nice living room, but for now it sits finished in my garage and in the initial pictures below."

"This is a one-of-a-kind Polymoog synthesizer coffee table. I created this a few weeks ago by building a coffee table into and around a real Polymoog synthesizer body from my parted out and non-functioning late model Polymoog (SN# 4075). It was a pain in the ass to do, not only the physical construction and time, but drawing up accurate panel and keyboard graphics and having them printed up on gloss laminated vinyl for a nice spill proof surface. I built in two drawers with inside dimensions of 13.75"x10.5"x1.75". Total table size is 46" wide, 22" deep, and 20.5" high. I listed it as new, because I built it just for the purpose of selling since I don't have a decent living room setting (had to drag it to somebody else's house for the photos).

If you're into synths, want an interesting conversation piece, want to own something that nobody else has, and want a great and functional coffee table at the same time, then this is the only chance to own this. Great for office lobby, waiting room, or home.

Polymoog Coffee Table Graphics

via Elhardt:
"In case anybody wants nice scalable graphics I drew up of the Polymoog synth's panel, I have pdf file links below. It's what I used for my coffee table. It took probably 2 to 3 full days of constant measuring and drawing in Corel draw. It's good for reference or you can send the file straight to your local printer and print a full size image to hang on your wall.

The 1st file I used the include fonts option option, but I never know for sure whether they're in there, or whether it's still using the fonts in Windows. It looks better on the screen at smaller sizes than the 2nd. The 2nd file is the same thing, but with fonts converted to curves, so it doesn't rely on fonts at all. That's what Express Printing told me to send them. The 3rd file is the same as the 2nd, but with the keyboard included, so for those who might want to make a polymoog coffee table, I've just saved you a bunch of work.

Polymoog Resonator Section

YouTube via Elhardt. follow-up to this post.

"This is an unplanned demo I threw together today of a Polymoog 3 Band Resonator that I ripped out of my Polymoog and built into a stand-alone unit for processing sounds. It consists of three filters in parallel which all be switched to lowpass, bandpass, or highpass modes. Each filter has three controls: frequency, resonance, and amplitude. It's one of the unique things about the Polymoog synthesizer which you don't find in any other polyphonic analog synth.

What happened to the rest of my Polymoog? I used the Polymoog case to built a coffee table, of which you can see a few pictures at the end of the video. That was sold off. The rest of my Polymoog was sold for parts to quite a few people. My Polymoog just had too many problems to bother putting in the time and effort to fix."
