MAKE: Blog: Portable Cardboard Table

Portable Cardboard Table

This is a neat idea, especially if it could be made out of recycled cardboard. I only wish it came with a seat, or two!

This lightweight, portable cardboard table aims to assist on-the-go creative types like designers and students, who are often limited to work on low desks or floors. Made by Sruli Recht from flatpack cardboard pieces, this lightweight, sturdy design offers creatives an ergonomic plane on which to cut, fold, draft or design. Adding even more appeal to this smart and useful design, the table is biodegradable and can easily be folded up to pack into a portable carrier.

not so

Vinyl table cloth can help prevent this from becoming a soggy mess.

It looks like it could also be made from old election signs, so then it would probably be stronger and waterproof.
