This has led me to my latest gaming table endeavor - a portable gaming table that can be hauled around in the back of a Prius.
The directions and ingredients for this table is very straight forward -
Open the tables and lay the hardboard on top of it.
And presto - instant portable table.
I have used this table once in a few games against Big Al and it was a lot more sturdy than you think it would be. We draped a sheet over it and clamped it on with some paper clamps and it worked like a charm.
