DIY Utility Tables

This tutorial will show how to make portable tables that are easy to setup and just the right size for craft shows, garage sales, flea markets or just extra tables for finishing work. My wife needed portable tables for her craft shows. Craft show spaces vary in size, so she asked me to create two different sizes. I started making these tables about eight years ago and I routinely get requests for instructions on how to make them.

Rather than create an unneeded set of tables, I shot photos using one of each size table that I had already made.

Tools needed:

- Drill & drill bits
- Saw
- Screwdriver
- welder
