ABSTRACT:
A lightweight, portable table comprising a unitized table top member and legs secured to the table top member. The unitized table top member includes table top and bottom elements and a rigid support member. A hardened foam body is joined to the top and bottom table elements and is formed around the support member in sufficient volume to support the support member within the table top member. A lightweight core element is positioned within the table top member joined to the hardened foam body. The table advantageously requires few parts and is economical to manufacture yet is sturdy and easily transported.
