    Get a table you can sit on without any bouncing and that can hold 2 or three concrete slabs if the need be for isolation.



    If you need something that can pack up, get a table with solid legs that screw out of a solid surface.
    the legs lock

    Those folding tables are fine....they're just a foot too short. You might want to do something to isolate/decouple the turntables, but that's true pretty much no matter what they're sitting on, and it's easy to do.

    im trying to think of a way to raise it of the floor. they are heavy and very sturdy. see if I put the feet on top of a brick or something it would slide off. any modification to the feet would just rip apart.

    the point was to get a table that wont calapse if someone falls on it. I am sure if I paid a bit more I could get something witth adjustable height.

    I found what I wanted on the home depot website. it might not be wide enough though. they claim it holds 300 pounds and its cheap.

    It wouldn't be tall enough for my taste.

    Ikea (sort of) makes the cheapest off-the-shelf desk/table I've seen: Frame. They don't make the matching table top anymore, but that's okay because it's basically 1 1/4" cardboard anyway. It's what I've used for over a year and is the first thing I've been really happy with.

    Them not making a tabletop for it is kind of a blessing in disguise, because you can just get wood from Home Depot or Lowes in the right dimensions and have something a lot better.
