I'll only work on V2 of this after I get some funding through a campaign. Why?
I'm a coder by trade. I'm not going to gamble with R&D on the table concept,
if I have to bootstrap it on my own. If I get the funding, I'll go full time
on this, and I'll surely make it more portable. I have to experiment with 3D
printed parts, I think. It can't be done with stuff out of Home Depot.

Hi Clay, I saw -- thanks. I refactored it, and it's simple to carry now. I've

Guys, if I get the funding, I'll make it better before I put into production
(more portable, etc.) I'll do some more R&D and tinkering with it. I'll
probably also hire a mechanical engineer to consult me. But it does the job,
even as it is. So worst case, you'll get it as it is now, best case you'll get
a better variant.

I had a breakthrough today about how to make this table fully portable. It can
be assembled really quickly without tools. I have documented the changes in
the campaign page in the subsection "Planned Improvements in Portability".

I use a couple of music stands to set optimal angle and height for my laptop
and keyboard, but this is a good idea. Should be able to make it :)

The fabric shade would be trickier to make. I use a small pop up tent though.
It unfolds by throwing into air and keeps mosquitoes out. :)

Interesting idea. How do you prevent the music stand from tipping from wind? I
thought of something like this, but thought that the stands would be too heavy
to carry around,
by many people. 3\. Leveling, might be convenient to make it
