That is a slick way of having a table and saving space too.

I did something like that but where I had a rope and block and tackle to raise the table up and I did not thing of having storage added.
Well done buddy well done.

One thing I had a problem with was the folding legs and could not figure out how to make them fold up properly since the table was not as wide as the legs were long.

Arlin,

Thanks!

It took a fair amount of layout work to balance out the dimensions. The work surface is 3' deep, deeper than I would have liked in order to have room for the legs.

pretty neat design. Not sure I would ever be able to fold it back up due to collecting clutter

Here is what I built several years ago. I think it was from Woodsmith.
