minus-squareThorny_Insight@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up12·4 months agoUnstable coffee shop tables. Just make them 3 legged and be done with it.
minus-squareall-knight-party@kbin.runlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 months agoIm not sure I understand, aren’t tables usually wobbly because a leg is a different height than the rest from being bent or something? In that case, couldn’t a 3 legged table also have a leg that isn’t quite the right height?
minus-squareVacationlandgirl@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·4 months agoIf there are three legs, and one is a different height, the table won’t wobble but the top will be slanted. Probably still not ideal at a coffee shop, but at least it won’t move!
minus-squareall-knight-party@kbin.runlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 months agoOooh, I see what you mean, yeah, that does make sense!
minus-squareSLVRDRGN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 months agoUnless you’re sharing the table with someone - then you’ll get some seesaw action!
minus-squarePilon23@feddit.dklinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoNever connected those dots before… Now I’m also wondering why most tables aren’t 3-legged. Too easy to knock over maybe?
minus-squareTheKracken@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·4 months agoIt’s harder to get 4 people around the table with 3 legs. Someone will have a table leg between their legs. You don’t have the problem with 4 legs.
