Am I saying if you don't it will happen? No, I'd just like to make sure it doesn't.

Folks,
Sorry for the delay response,
1. This is the prototype so we decided to not paint it flat-black because the manufacturer made a mistake with the dimensions and will need to re-cut each side.
2. Some of you have a sharp eye and noticed that the manufacturer MILGO/BUFKIN read my diagram wrong. They made the inside dimensions 4'x8' instead of the outside dimensions.
3. The weight is less than 15 pounds, the final version will be about 1-2 pds less.
4. Not sure if MILGO/BUFKIN is planning to sale them to teams and other FLL regionals; we are in discussion.
MILGO/BUFKIN is donating 25 tables to the FLL program in NYC.
