Using the table outside
Verfasst: 02.10.2013 19:58
Hello all,
We have successfully modified our table for outdoor use. I know there was an official accessory for this, but we took a different route.
Here in Germany there is a company called Wagner that markets the "Teno System" of various lengths of tubes and brackets to be used as table legs, storage racks, etc. We initially bought legs that were at table height, but the stability was not great, especially for the way we use the table. Ultimately we cut the legs down so that they fit perfectly on either side of the table in its storage compartment.
It makes for a slightly low, but beautifully stable table! My knees just fit underneath. The first photos show the original length. The last photo is at the lower length -- about 15cm / 6 inches lower than a dining table.
