OK...I'll correct you...
I did use a 6 foot conference table base, but it was a super heavy duty table. Yeah that added a lot of weight, but I think that Quads table is still just a tad bit heaver than mine.
The lighter table is nice, but I think I'd probably do it the same way next time. Even though it's a hassle to move because it's so damned heavy, it's very sturdy. There's no amount of moving or jossling that is gonna make it wobbly or come loose. It's very well built.
Do ya hear that...Any of you who might be thinking about buying the table? It's built with QUALITY in mind! Sturdy, well-built, American made quality...It's a DEAL at $250.
BK...What kind of material did you get for the top? Is it like that velveteen that you see at auction on E-Bay?
