fold-up table
My neighbor has a table that is made of 6 oak planks
all hinged together. The legs fold out as a separate unit and are hinged like the old comping cots. The two are latched together to form a camp table. Wife wants on made. I can't find any of the old strap hinges that were used in the old army cot days. Any ideas? Thanks for your time and efforts. Don |
