ABSTRACT:
A picnic box which can be assembled, then reassembled into a picnic table is disclosed. The picnic box and table comprises: a frame having four corner posts rigidly spaced and permanently held parallel to each other by four rails, each rail extending only between bottom end portions of adjacent corner posts, and two opposite rails having an inwardly extending abutment; two opposite box long side portions removably positioned between corner posts on opposite sides of the frame, and along and above the rails extending therebetween; two opposite box short side portions removably positioned between corner posts on opposite ends of the frame, and along and above the rails extending therebetween; and, a box bottom side portion removably positioned within and above the abutment on the two opposite side rails. The box side portions are adapted with tongue and grooves along peripheral edges so that they may be releasably held within the frame and so that when the frame is inverted they may be interlocked thereon forming a table top. The portable table is lightweight, convenient to carry and use, and promotes picnics, conversation, and romance.
