This F-clamp table by designers Kyle Hoff and Alex O’Dell goes by the name 'The Floyd Leg' and serves as a solution for people who are always moving from place to place.
Whether you're using them for eating, storage or display purposes, tables are an essential furniture piece for most apartments. However, there are few tables that are designed to neatly flat pack away and they often end up being heavy, and involve a lot of parts that makes them difficult to transport. Rather than this, the simple Floyd Leg table is designed so that it can be set up with just four F-clamps, as well as easily dismantled as needed, which cuts down a lot of waste and breaks the cycle of constantly needing to purchase new home furnishings after a move.
