Errol,

I just answere your other post, but when you mention "boiled" peanuts, you got my mouthy watering. I'm originally from Hawaii and the only places I found boiled peanuts were in the South when we were travelling. I guess the rest of the country doesn't know what they're missing. I definitely would be an all day visitor.

Good luck with your show.

Those tables from Walmart are nice tables to work with.

My husband drilled holes into the table to accept the back wall and shorter side walls he built. We just wing nut them tight from underneath at set up time. He also has holes drilled into the back corners to accept those arm lights wich can be moved to highlight your display. The electrical line can be taped right to the leg and out of the way/view.

Velcro strips can be adhered to the outside ledge and you can make curtains to stick to your table. Make different colored curtains to go along with holidays. And then no one can see your stuff under the table.

This table would work nice for a carving table. One could build short 5 inch walls around the backside with tool holders, and cut a hole in the table to push your chips down into. Again use velcro sticky strips to velcro a bag under that hole to catch your chips. Lights can be screwed into the table so they are nice and sturdy. Lots of ideas can be incorperated into using that table as a carving station.

M.
