Abstract
A modular table and method of assembly comprises a first table having a first table top and a pair of first support legs at opposite end regions of the first table top and a second table having a second table top and a pair of second support legs. The second support legs are adjustably mounted at the second table top and are adjustable relative to the second table top between a support orientation, in which the second support legs support the second table top in a free-standing manner, and a non-support orientation, in which the second support legs do not substantially support the second table top in a free-standing manner. The second table is configured to be secured to the first table when the tables are adjacent to one another. The second support legs are adjustable to the second orientation when the second table is secured to the first table.
