About the Mod Block


The Mod Block is a transformable piece of art for your tabletop. It is a humble box with a swappable artistic face panel. It has removable dividers. And it features a press fit cap. However, it is much more.

Think of this as a multipurpose device. It gains new functionality with different attachments. It has publicly available specifications. And, we encourage you to customize it to your liking.


Assembly Instructions


The cap should snugly fit into the top. Tighten or loosen the screws for the desired fit. With the cap off, you can remove the front panels. This will allow you to remove the divider panels.

Only use a hand screwdriver to tighten screws. Do not use power tools.

Be aware this product may contain small parts. Please keep this product away from children and pets.





Care Instructions


This handmade product is made of natural wood, oils, and waxes. Please see this guide: Product Care for Solid Waxed Wood.

 

Only tighten screws by hand. Do not use power tools.

How to Customize Your Mod Block

 

The Mod Block is unlike most other furniture: it is designed to evolve with you. You can fix it, modify it, and use it any way you like.

Specifications for this product are "open source", meaning they are publicly available to everyone. Create your own solutions that conform to the box specifications. Learn more: https://github.com/modxmodfurnishings/modxmod-main

Our Brand and Vision


Why must art be relegated to walls or shelves? What if we encouraged physical contact with design? How might objects transform into our desires?
