I use the balcony of our condo as studio space when I need to cut and sand wood or take painted panels out side to dry quickly on summer day. I wanted something that is quicker to set up and take down than the heavy and awkward metal saw horses I have been using. I found this BORA Centipede and ordered it online. What a find. It sets up quickly and collapses together quickly to a compact size. When expanded out it is light weight yet it can hold more pounds than I am ever likely to place on it. I ordered the 1/2 inch thick table top that will fold in half to fit in the carry case for storage. The Table top is the heaviest part of the table which makes the table quite sturdy. When winter comes I will take it down and store it till summer comes around again.
