The new WOI landed on my doorstep this morning; this months feature, the currently very trendy,  trestle table. Trestles are so useful, especially in the classic london small flat scenario, where you want to have a dinner party but have no room for a solid dining table. I also use a pair in the workshop all the time.
The problem being, (until now), is that when the do not have a top on, they just sit in the corner of a room looking, well, like a pair of trestles. Nina Tolstrup, whom i featured with in 'Book a table' at The Rocket gallery last year, solves the problem with her "1 x "1 trestle set. When not in use, you could light them, stack books on them, hang stuff from them, or just enjoy their pure sculptural form. I think they are extremely good.

(The 5th one reminds me of Tims game; see 'crazy legs' blogpost.)
