One thing to remember about any rolling tables, they need to fit out the
door! Most times they don't. Also any flat surface will acquire stuff if
it's left open, we have seen this in the past and it will not likely
change. The tables in the workshop even had a label on them to be left
clean and as soon as someone left something over it. BAM! no more open
table, just more junk.
