I needed space to do some Instructables and other projects and I also needed a kitchen table, thus my multi function desk. It works well and it was fairly cheap (about $150 total).

Get 2 of those things that are on folding tables that are used to stop and lock the legs from moving.

I love the idea. I'm going to try and make one this summer.

A bar to stop it from accidentally closing was discussed, but it is stable enough for my projects. It would be easy to attach a bar inside, like one of the old bars used to keep car hoods up. Screw it into the bottom desk and have it attach somewhere near the U beam on top.
