ABSTRACT:
A frame assembly made from modular components includes a first frame member, a tubular post member with a work opening in its side wall to permit the post interior to be fixed to the frame exterior, and a second frame member axially mountable over the post. A spring button extending through aligned apertures in the tubular post and second frame members releasably locks the second frame member to the post. A method for constructing a product from a frame assembly includes defining a work opening in a tubular post wall, fixing the post interior to the exterior of a frame member by working through the opening, mounting a tubular frame member axially onto the post and releasably locking it to the post by way of a spring button positioned within the post. A stand made from the frame assembly may include lower and upper frame subassemblies joined by tubular column members extending between the subassemblies and onto respective opposed lower and upper tubular posts attached thereto.
