To support our Netflix in bed habit and avoid the problem of the laptop warming the knees or bed we were on the lookout for an overbed table.
The dumpster near our apartment often has treasures from the shops nearby. One day I spotted some fairly solid MDF lattice that had probably been a shop fitting. It was broken in parts, but there were large enough pieces to salvage and build an overbed table.
Cutting the MDF, screwing and gluing the parts, adding four small wheels for mobility and some trim for additional strength and giving the whole thing a paint job has given us a decorative and functional overbed table for a fraction of the cost.
