Cheers! Looks quite pink in photos but it's quite a deep red in person which I like. Kind of a new synth wave thing going on.

Must make a journey down your way at some point (post lockdown) to see your growing collection...!

Definitely a synthwave vibe going on there :)    You're welcome any time mate!

That way you could move bottom part back and forth a little. How do you plan to keep legs from folding back under during play, in case they are kicked. (May have already been answered, i scrolled through some of comments.)

Cheers! Not sure what you mean about the hinges. They definitely strong enough (provided their secured well enough anyway!). You can't really see them when the cab is open due to the way I've fixed them but interested in what you're thinking by this?

The legs lock into place when they're fully open or closed (there's a catch behind the leg). I haven't given them a good kick yet(!) but will let you know...

Top man! Hopefully not too long. I'm quite jealous you've had the seaside on your doorstep throughout this lockdown. Feels like I've exhausted every inch of my local area over the last six months

 :cheers: Definitely not everyone's cup of tea (as we say in Blighty!) but it's coming together nicely (you guys only see the bits that went well...  ;D)

Sorry I should have been more specific. By the hinges I mean the pivot point, where the table folds down. (Hinged with the box mounted to the wall). I was thinking if the pivot points had some play in them, the table could be nudged, since there would be some give left and right,
although probably not a lot. Good thing with the legs locking in place.
Nice work!!
