Not exactly Origami, but half the meaning... Ori = folding. I was kind of jonesing to build something fun, functional and aesthetically pleasing (to me). This is what i ended up with. Made this one for Michelle. My take on the folding leg tables my grand parents and parents had growing up. Materials include- Butchers block, golden oak, aluminum and stainless steel. Each hinge was hand machined aluminum and stainless steel hardware was used. A spring and ball bearing locking mechanism helps lock the legs in both open and closed positions. In its closed state, it can be stored under the bed, vertically between bookshelves... Anywhere I guess.
