Build Considerations
Because of its height, lateral stability is important. Use cross-bracing or a lower stretcher to prevent wobble. Ensure the top is securely fastened and flat for reliable work.
The footprint can be adjusted to fit narrow or wide spaces. Consider adding hooks or shelves underneath for tools or storage if used in a workshop context.

The High Table works well as a standing workbench, hospitality table, or flexible surface in multipurpose rooms. It can be finished to match other furniture or left more utilitarian for back-of-house use.
