don't expect them to stop only because you're slow

Due to limited space in our apartment, we opt to to keep the “less often used” furniture out of sight (as much as possible). But when when families & friends are here for some fun poker game, to hang out, have some food, beer and whiskies, they demanded for an extra table or 2. Having limited space to sit their drinks and snacks aside, I need an extra table, but I don't want it here when it's done. So my solution is to construct a retractable wall table using a LACK coffee table and that will never take up additional space when I don't really need it.

This is our dinner / poker table with never enough space for food / drinks (because we treat our guests too well) when everyone is seated.

This LACK coffee table that we bought will just take up space when it’s not in use.

So we bought a retractable L-shaped bracket from a local hardware store.

Screwed the brackets to the LACK surface and mounted them to the wall

Table pulled out for action!

Now I am wondering what should I do with the four unused legs. Suggestions? 

You're probably Chinese if you make the same resolutions two times within each year. One the first day of Gregorian year, you have made some serious resolutions but you haven't quite execute anything. Everyone's still in mood for holiday and Chinese New Year is usually approaching within a month. So you slack off and do anything but working seriously. Don't believe me? Here's an example.

I made resolutions to go to the gym more regularly and eat less junk on New Years day.

Unfortunately CNY is approaching and I attended more dinner gatherings, skipped more classes and ate lots of junk. Come CNY, all Gregorian resolutions has been broken. So for this CNY, I shall rinse and repeat.
