You might not be able to pilot the Enterprise in real life, but at least you can feel like it in the James T. Kirk Captain's Chair ($2,900). This full-scale replica of Kirk's captain's chair from the original Star Trek TV series is constructed from the original design conceived by Matt Jefferies, and is limited to only 1,701 units. Features include a wood and steel platform, leather seat and back with oak arm rests, 360-degree swivel action, and various toggle switches, knobs, and buttons from the series, some of which play classic Trek dialogue or sound effects through the seat's built-in speaker.

If you're a long-time Uncrate reader, you'll know that we love vintage furniture. This Furniture Factory Cart ($910) is a prime example. Originally used in the early 1900s to transport furniture, fabric, and supplies around the factory, these solid white oak carts have been cleaned, oiled, and restored by Northern California craftsmen, but retain the nicks, distressing, cracks, and original cast iron wheels, bolts, and plates that give them their unique look.

Ever wondered what it really feels like to float on air? Find out with the Hoverit Lounger (£5,875; ~$8,350). This revolutionary lounger is built by hand in the U.K., and uses repelling magnetic forces in both the bed and base to allow the seat to literally float. Clear acrylic construction lets you see the components at work, while the included cushion makes sure you're comfortable as you relax. [Thanks, Joshua]

Inspired by the cabinets used by gunsmiths to store and carry cartridges for their custom firearms, the Gunning Box Bar ($870) mixes functionality with old-world class. The roughly two foot-tall cabinet is made from solid mahogany, with brass corners and handles, plenty of space for bottles, and door-mounted shelves for holding glasses and accessories.

Covered in the same microsuede as their Omni Plus Chair, the Sumo Chief Rocker ($180) is also the same size and filled with the same great material — but it's got something up its sleeve. Namely, a long metal frame, which gives it added stability, making it nearly perfect for extended gaming sessions, or just a relaxing afternoon nap.

Made from the rusted sheetmetal of old cars and trucks, these Sheetmetal Tables ($800 and up) bring a touch of authentic decay to any environment. The old stock is supported by a frame of brand new steel tubing, and each table — whether it be a coffee table or TV stand — features an adjustable foot on each leg to provide a stable base no matter how uneven the flooring. [Thanks, Sam]

If you've found yourself searching for a new desk, then you can thank furniture juggernaut Steelcase for releasing a perfectly practical solution dubbed the Home Habitat.

Sure, you've already seen the Villain Chair, which is plenty for any average baddie. But if you had a more specific (Palpatine) villain in mind, check out the Galactic Throne ($5,500). Made to order out of high-quality parts, the Galactic Throne bears more than a passing resemblance to the Emperor's seat from Jedi, making it one of the most badass seats we've ever seen.

Get rid of the paper trail with the NeatDesk ($400). This compact ADF (automatic document feeder) scanner helps you declutter your desk and empty your filing cabinet, leaving more room for important stuff. Like snacks. With one-button scanning, the NeatDesk scans up to 10 receipts, 10 business cards and 10 documents at once (or a single 50 page document), and then organizes the copies and extracts the info for digital use. You can scan in a stack of business cards and populate your address book, or scan in a pile of receipts to auto-track your expenses (export to Quicken, Excel or Quickbooks), or scan in a document and turn it into a searchable PDF. The auto-organization and character recognition technology worked surprisingly well on the Mac unit we've been testing, and is going to make next year's IRS holiday a little easier to deal with. With versions available for Mac OS X and Windows, you'll be able to organize your office no matter if you're a Mac or PC.
