i hope this works it is the first time i have used photobucket

What is the table made out of?

How is it made? It looks nice!

Looks good. Is it sturdy? Don't want it to tip over...

ok it is made of wood and very sturdy as i used a turnbuckle in the middle of the stand and used 3 hooks and eyes to hold the top on it has a piano hinge like i said it was given to me i can take pictures of the back that might answer some questions

Looks good Scoop. This time everyone else is asking you the hard questions.

ok here is the back of the table it is painted black but i think you can see the hooklocks that holds the top to the base and i know you cansee the turnbuckle that i might have to take out and go from the bottom of that wooden beam for lack of a better term as scruffy might have a shelf for that area if not i might make my own

Scoooooooooooopmiester....looks great my freind....i know.. I have not posted the pics of mine like i said i would last week or maybe its been 2 weeks now.. Anyway.. Tonite...when i get home.. I will take some pics and post them.....

Ok, so what if you took that bar out of the middle and put a shelf there instead? or put in a couple of shelves? Then you won't have to dig around in a case during your show, it will be nicely laid out ahead of the show, and not all cluttered on top of the table before or during the show.

good idea will have to look into that see how i can add some removable shelves

Ok everyone.. Choppers pics of his magic case/table are ready for viewing....look from bottom to top....and read what ive written on each.. , i also have a pick of my magic lightbulb thingy that i made....

Hey scoop.. If you are still thinking about adding a shelf.. Those braces that are right there.. Drill small holes in them... One towards the front. One towards the back.. Then have your shelf. Have little dowels that match the holes.. That way they drop into the holes. Lock the table from opening and it sits on those ledges...viola"...

Scoop, does the top of the table hold the sides in place pretty well? If it does, what about resting the shelf on the boards that are horizontal inside the walls? If you lay it on them, and then attach a couple of hinges to one side, on top of the shelf, you would be able to fold the shelf up onto the side, then fold the table shut.

thank you chopper and harpoetta both really good ideas

Scoooooooop.....have you added your shelf yet???? Dont forget to show us when you do..

no been doing events for the red cross and have to whatch my money for the rest of this month so it might be a bit befroe i add that shelf

hey scoop cool table it looks like one i made from the insructions of my mark wilson magic book i,ll post pics later also i purchase a table that folds up like the old t.v. trays it was used for a checker game but i modified it for a magic table i,ll post pics of it to later

In my opinion you could make a shelf like she stated but hinge it to one side or the other that way it still folds up flat and is self contained. Just a suggestion.
