ABSTRACT:
A case to counter conversion kit includes two case bodies which are positioned to form a storage space between them. Two shelves are attached between the case bodies to provide storage surfaces and to lock the bodies together, thereby forming a stable base for a counter. The shelves include tongues along opposite edges of the shelves. The tongues slide into tracks or moldings attached in channels which are located on opposing faces of the case bodies, thereby locking the shelves and bodies together. A multi-section counter top is attached to the tops of the case bodies and locked in place by pins located in channels on the tops of the case bodies which engage slots in mating faces of the counter top sections. A roll-up counter top cover fits into a recess in the top of the counter assembly. A flexible panel is wrapped around the case bodies and secured in place with hook and loop fasteners. A hinged door is attached to the flexible panel and provides access to the storage space between the case bodies. The shelves, counter top sections, and counter top cover are designed to fit in the case bodies when not in use.
