Portable tables

[John Ross]

This is NOT a wobbly card table.
It is a strong table. It is like a strong fold up picnic table. Because it 
folds, each section is a reinforced moulded square, and is is much sturdier 
than a single length folding picnic table.
I was hesitant about buying one before, as I was thinking wobbly, but it is 
not.
