Plates and cups have tiny ball bearings installed in their bottoms, allowing for convenient rolling across long tables. Teacup dishes and cups can be used to play impromptu games of "air hockey".
I tried to look for this. Really.
(?) 8 yellow dish wheels

& beer glasses. OK.pleese find a better category pleese. home: dishes? product: dish? mental: health? only kidding. |
|
|
I like it. Perhaps some kind of kickstand arrangement for stability, in case your dinner table is a bit wonky, and you don't want the turkey to fall on the floor. |
|
|
Oops, forgot about the category. Changed. |
|
|
NEAT!mind you - still think product:dish would have been better. |
|
|
my kitchen floor is not level. this
would be a disaster in my house... |
|
|
Some sort of mechanism similar to the clicker on a pen could be worked in. push down on the dish to free or lock it. But making it dishwasher safe might be difficult. |
|
|
Simpler: the right kind of place-mat or trivet (e.g. quilted cotton) could work as a rolling dish parking space. |
|
|
Trivets is a bettr way for dishwashing. The trivet would have the wheels and the dishes could sit on that. |
|
|
Of course, another option is to just to use an air hockey table as a dining table. |
|
|
The manufacturer recommends the installation of a small trim piece around the perimeter of your table, to stop dishes from sliding off into oblivion. Not for use on boats. |
|
|
Hehe, yeah I like the air hockey idea. And [UnaBubba] they're called serviettes in your part of the world, unless you happen to be in McDonalds. |
|
|
... in which case they're called cockroaches. Actually, they're called cockroaches in all McDonalds, all 'round the whirled. |
|
|
Picturing these in use at sea. |
|
|
[UnaBubba], I meant no offence, it's just that most Australians that I converse with refer to them as serviettes. You trust the French and Americans over the British when it comes to the English language? |
|
|
I will decline your offer of English lessons, I prefer not to use Americanisms. |
|
|
Do Cockneys drop the "h" when they type? |
|
|
Do Nor'easterners remove an "r" on the end of some words and put them on other ones in their email? |
|
|
You can "lift your car's hood" or "have a hood lift your wallet". |
|
|
I'll stick to Americanisms, as long as my spell-check works, but would invest in a lazy susan before rolling dishware! |
|
|
Honest-to-God dishes are breakable, aren't they? I don't think they'll hold up in a game of "air hockey." If these rolling dishes were sufficiently robust (perhaps made of plastic), I'd love to own some. |
