M156 coffee table

Gents,

I'm considering building up a coffee table from an M156. My only unknown is how I would attach feet or casters to it. Anyone have any ideas? To my knowledge one hasn't been created before. This is the look I'm going for...

HA. Let me add some context here. My wife and I saw this table in an art gallery in Vail, CO. which gave me the initial idea. I told her it would be cool to have one in my office and said as long as it wasn't out in the main part of the house she doesn't care.




A few months back, I saw this:





Since my original post, I'm done some rough measurements with the engine sitting in the car. At roughly 30" tall and 30" wide, it's just too big to fit in my office as the overall size of the table (with the glass would have to roughly the size of a 6' table like the one in the photo of the maserati engine. I assumed I could take off some height by removing the lower oil pan which would give me possible mounting points for feet or wheels but once I realized the glass would have to be huge. The other AMG table is a 3.2L which makes size better for my office space, but I feel like the glass on that was a little small overall.
