Abstract

Abstract A relatively low, narrow, and long table, such as a coffee table, is provided, having a storage cabinet under each end of the table top for the storage of equipment, in this instance photographic equipment such as cameras, projectors, slide trays, motion picture film, etc., etc. This table is provided with a portion of the top at one end over one cabinet cut-out and hinged to the top so that it may be hinged to rest 180° in plane with the top and on which when thus extended, is a film or slide projector. The other end of the table top is also provided with a cut-out portion which is hinged to the end of a telescopically mounted section, slidable out the end of the table so that the cut-out portion may hinge upwardly to a vertical plane and act as a screen to receive pictures as projected from the projector at the other end of the table. The table is on caster wheels so that it may be moved anywhere in a room for the convenience of all viewers.
