Custom Portable Batman Themed Table




This batman themed table was designed and made in conjunction with a volunteer at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago. The collaborator and recipient of the table needed something that would allow him to draw on the go. Using a modified t-pipe that fastens to a protruding pipe on his chair and remains fastened to his chair at all times- From there a pipe screws into the modified t-pipe and becomes the support arm for the table top. The table top is PlastiDipped- to waterproof and protect table for easy cleaning. Batman plate, protects hole from wearing out and to add to the batman theme.
