      One observation - I don't think any of these ideas would ever qualify as a coffee table. Way too high, and too big too.

        I have a coffee-table that's bigger in plan, although a few mm lower...

        PS: Love the new idea - without the plumbing ! "

          Really? It seems awfully high to me, and it seems like it wouldn't work in the average home, overall size-wise. Only homes with larger than average size living rooms. But whatever, the fun is in the designing.

          Thanks.
          No plumbing??? 😞 Would be really convenient. Maybe as an option?

            I was also playing around with the idea of a spring in the base to make raising and lowering easier. Any thoughts on this?

              I saw this and thought of you ! Gotta say it's pretty tight.I like the fact it is asymetrical perhaps this is an avenue no one here has been down.

                Interesting, Chedda. But they main point of this thread is to design something that can be converted from a coffee table to a dining table, requiring it to be raised and lowered

                    Hey Mike, you never did say what you thought of my non-sliding seatback solution.

                        Oh i see hell n back that is a tall order. If its just a coffee table without chairs it's do able. Otherwise both the chairs and table will have to extend. Perhaps telescopically.
