My six tables along with another 6-10, that I can borrow from my Church will be used during our house warming party in 3 weeks time; 40 odd guests, two bands, and 5 other performers.
I have however encountered an issue with them, not exactly a problem, but more of a niggle.
I had 4 very large ladies (and I mean very large; think 20 plus stones/280#/ 130kg a piece or just over 1/2 of a ton in total) sit at one of my tables and eat their picnic during one show (and they weren't even interested in my products), their combined weight sank the table legs almost 4 inches into a reasonably dry grass playing field, and I had one helluva job pulling the table out of the soil while Sammy, in fits of laughter stood by watching me.
I am lucky as I have a whole metalworking and woodworking workshop available for my every whim, and so the other day I fished out my 6 inch diameter hole saw and made some simple, but very effective plywood feet to spread the load, reduce the ground pressure, and prevent another situation of having to recover the sunken narrow legs of a table from the turf again.
