ABSTRACT:
A locking removable support surface such as an ironing board for use in a bread board slot in a cabinet or with an adapter. The inner end of the support surface has sides that taper away from each other. When the support surface is inserted into the slot, the sides wedge horizontally against the ends of the slot locking the support surface in place. The adapter allows the support surface to be used on a cabinet that does not have a slot or any vertical surface. A drawer is removed from the cabinet and the adaptor is inserted. The adapter has a slot for the support surface. One embodiment of the adapter has side walls that taper in to match the taper of the sides of the support surface to provide superior horizontal wedging. Another embodiment of the adapter has upper and lower walls tapering toward each other to provide vertical wedging of the inner end of the support surface.
