This has to be looming as a huge market. Shopbot technology could shine here.
I was intrigued with the ten seater table mechanism and the superb design of the stackable chairs.

I've traveled in train compartments bigger then that place:rolleyes:

Actually it's good use of space, i'd just like to figure if it is more expensive per square foot but a cool idea:D

Yes Jack, I believe its 4 to 6 times dearer. Stumbled across it researching music studio gear. One of the boys is trying to con us into making 10 of the attached! Trouble is freight as we are 2000 kms away.

The problem is that everything you have to import for materials has 50-75% taxes levied on everything making your costs rediculous:eek:

This folding table is likely not custom made by Yamaha. The middle school cafeteria addition I completed last summer had these style folding tables in daily use. It’s a manufactured item.
