Anyone seen similar designs in Singapore or the region? Am thinking of buying a few of such tables but can't find any shops that sell it in Asia. Shipping from Italy is really expensive (costs almost the same as the product!)...

Get a contractor to do for you.Originally Posted by Vincegoh
thanks boss.. saw it but the design not nice plus it's not long enough for dining..Originally Posted by carbuncle
my intention is to use it as a dining table that can be folded in to avoid my kids running into the corners..
plus the ikea version looks quite cheapo..
maybe will go down take a look later. the cost is super compelling i must say.
i did but the contractor said dunno how to do a nice one leh. i went online to find some examples how to do it and sent across to him and he still said dunno how to do and dunno where to buy the structures and hinges?!Originally Posted by willow
that's why considering buying it from italy.. but didn't expect the shipping costs to be so exorbitant.
do u have any contacts for good & reliable contractors? can PM me pls?Originally Posted by willow
I dont but i thought it should not be too difficult for a contractor to come up with something like thatOriginally Posted by Vincegoh
ya, the hinges need special types, mayb imported difficult for normal contractor to source
but give u an idea bro, not sure will work
buy the ikea one (say 2 table sets with 4 hinges)
then ask ur contractor to replace the table top but use ikea hinges

thanks bro.. lemme suss out my carpenter and see if he can finally do it..Originally Posted by auroraborealis
Ikea's mechanism is too cheapo. Any IDs can do it that way.
I also asked my ID to design flip up table in my bedroom. He replied me that the current mechanism he has may not hold and reliable. He quite hesitant to do it for me as his company must warranty all the carpentry for 2 years. But i told him that i don't need a 60cm deep table, i just need a 30cm deep to put my laptop. He said he will help me to source better mechanism that he has confident. Waiting good news from him.
