My new safari door folding table

When I started researching examples of these folding tables, there were so few to be had, that I thought I would share for posterity for others looking for ideas.

Mine was made with the following items:
  1. 24"X12" 1/2" marine starboard lumber (purchase at West Marine and cut to 22" length)
  2. stainless piano hinge cut to length (Lowe's)
  3. marine rotating cabinet latch (West Marine)
  4. suspended by sleeved stainless braid cord salvaged from dog yard chain
  5. mounted using4mm bolts and rivnuts

mounted position is angled due to door not being level at full open. Also mounted at close to desk height (approx 29").
