Suitcase Table

Over the summer, I made a nice little pitch stand and decided to do some more wood work. I've wanted a suitcase table for some time now, only never really could justify spending the money on one - we're talking $400-$500 retail on one of these!

I'm sure serious wood working students would cringe at my methods - like spilting 1x4's with a circular saw, there are no straight edges on this. But it is more than suitable for my purposes:



The closeup pad is just some felt like fabric duct taped to a piece of cardboard - I've made and used them for years, allows me to make it the exact size I want and not confined to what the magic shop sells. Lots of room inside:




And the best part is is packs down into a small lightweight box that fits in the back seat of a car:






I'm not sure what I will actually do with this, I basically just made it because I have the free time and a pile of scrap wood. I may just put it in the flea market with a "for sale" sign on it, I might use it when street performing. Haven't made up my mind just yet.
