Table Plans for assembly, take apart, reassembly

in EGG Table Forum

Hi Everyone, I have a rooftop deck in Chicago- no nice big yard unfortunately, not yet at least. I am trying to locate table plans that would be easy to assemble and take apart. We will most likely not be our condo any longer than 3-4 more years, but I want to enjoy egging on my L BGE with a nice table that I can put together. Trying to think ahead and would like to be able to break down a table for moving purposes- 4 flights of stair, no elevator.

Anyone familiar with a set of plans? Many thanks in advance for the insight!!!

    Personally I'd stay with the nest and use a side table. A restaurant store, lowes or Craigslist is a great place to find a stainless steel table.

    Maybe you can just construct a normal table and use screws to hold the main parts together. Then when you move, just undo the screws and take the main pieces down that way?

    Build a regular table and use lag bolts to unbolt and tear down in sections.

    You could build the table as normal and leave it, with or without the egg, when you move.

    The lag bolts are a good idea- can maybe get it into, a minimum, 2 sections top counter and bottom (with legs still attached) thought maybe a hex with a wing to tighten, untighten

    Lag bolts holding the horizontal stretchers to the legs. Then the table top and bottom shelves can simply sit on the horizontal stretchers or screw into them.

    It sounds like you have a few options. I really just wanted to comment on your avatar. Are you from Cleveland originally? Which mustard do you prefer? I like Bertman's better myself.

    I recently bought the BGE mahogany table.  Breaks down to two shelves, 4 legs.  4 nuts per leg to assemble.  Took about 10 minutes to have the table up.  If you can find one on display somewhere it might give you some ideas.
