Hyperbolic Table

Picture
Picture
My goal was to build a table that was completely symmetrical and could collapse down for storage and transporting. After numerous models and drawings the solution became this "hyperboloid" shape. This shape is the result of a quadratic function and it has very unique qualities. The hourglass resembling structure goes from completely flat to completely straight up all without bending the supports that make it. It is aesthetic to look at and had the exact mechanism I needed. The structure is very stable as long as the bottom portion is braced.
