A friend has asked me to build a portable table that will be used as an extension to their dining table for large gatherings. The table would be stored in the basement when not being used. He would like seating for two on each side and one at the end.
His suggestion is to use the same hardware that is used in a card table. I believe that card table hardware wouldn’t be strong enough to support a solid wood table.
Do you have any suggestions as to hardware and design of a portable table?
