A question of recycling.
There are advantages (Cleaning, repair, display and even use) in having a small table which will securely hold a heavy studio camera. This gives easy access from every side.
IKEA is, I am sure, able to provide a modern solution. However, we had a old dinning room table in store, no longer in use. This was from the early 1920's (wife' s grandparents setting up home) but very Victorian in expression.
In short, the width of the table has now become the length and the "length" has been shortened to around the same dimensions as the bipost Century stand. A couple of hours yesterday with a saw and glue-pot. The legs are attached with wooden threads, so it can be stored/Transported quite easily. The table top uses one of the extension pieces from the original table (Dutch extension?).
Needs a filt cover still. I don't think the idea is suited for a more complex raise/drop and tilt conversion.
