Thanks for the comments, folks. Knew you would enjoy making one for yourself and friends. Cost me about $25 to make it.

Below is the link to the plans. If you can not get to them, let me know. I still have them.

I like the table and would love to make one. I tried the link but it keeps telling me it can’t be found.

Harry, nice job on the table. Brought back a lot of memories setting those little tables up in a field tent. The only thing i see wrong with your table is (where is the olive drab) Ha Ha, just joking. If i atempt to make one it will not be green either. Thanks for the posting.

Sorry for bringing a two year-old thread back from the dead but….

I was searching for a good folding table design to use when I homebrew and this is exactly what I’m looking for. The design is simple and the table is portable enough to travel. The only problem is the plans seem to be located in a member’s only area of the link provided. Does anyone have these plans and would be willing to share them?

Glad to hear from several others that like this field table. Still have those plans available for anyone that needs them. So send me an e-mail and I’ll send them to you.

Can you please send me a copy of the plans for the field table? I am modifying them for a kids picnic table. Thanks

This is quite a project. Very impressive.

Love the table and tried to download the plans but was confronted with an login requirement. (????) Tried to message you but cannot because I haven’t made 5 posts at this site yet. Wow. Plans for a field table are locked up like they’re rocket science. :) Whatever, I am fairly familiar with field tables. I was just curious about how you were securing your centerboard to the end boards when the table is opened out.

Okay, I woke up and did a zoom of your pics. Now I understand your idea for locking the center and end boards together. Good trick.
