Dining Table Solution



Hi Gang,

I had a moment of brilliance and wanted to share... <g>

Mike was complaining about the way the dining table opens up. You know, you 
set it half way open then flip the top up to open it all the way..... 

The problem is if you have put junk on it when it's half way open you have to 
move all the stuff to get the second half open.

I suggested he hinge it so the second half hangs down in front then you 
simply would need to move the bottom legs forward as you lift the hanging part and 
voila, you have a table half with the junk still on the other half. Important 
if you use it as a computer stand for example.....

Now he leaves it 1/2 up for travel, but if you wanted to put it back in the 
"against the wall" position you would need to maybe put some time brass hook 
and eye type things on both sides.

Another added benefit is you can hide stuff under it.... since the second 
half almost reaches the floor.
