Nah, but I've got a sofa upholstered just like that.

Dammit!! I knew I should've taken that picture. I'm on the stage crew in my school and we built an elaborate set for the show "The Death of a Salesman" in which there was an 18' by 6' platform that was 6' off the ground. The company that made the plywood and 2x4's we used was called ****sa wood. Why would you sell that would to a highschool? They know damn well we would laugh at it for a good 10 mins at least and any grown men near by would most likely laugh to, great job ****sa you've wasted at least 15 mins of our lives that we will NEVER get back.

I guess they used balsa because it is lightweight, makes moving sets easy. Balsa's pretty brittle though, I'm not sure I'd want to stand on a platform made of the stuff.
