FREE TABLE & CHAIR
In Germany there are very few 2nd hand stores like Goodwill or Salvation Army.  I suppose there are donation places, but I haven't seen them.  The only second hand store I've been to only has clothes and small items.  Most people just put anything that they don't want out on the sidewalks on scheduled days for the big trash pickups.  The trucks come with a squasher truck and one truck to keep good stuff.  I haven't seen them ever actually put anything in the truck to keep.  They squash everything.  One day I ran out and rescued a small table and a chair.  There were a lot of chairs but I only kept one.  My idea was that this could be our hobby table to use to do some puzzles or to build models and such.  But it was a little too short, we couldn't fit our chair under it.  So I have a friend that is very capable with building things and asked him to make me some table leg extensions.  I love that they came out so perfect.  When we move back to the U.S. these will most likely be squashed.

The table legs go into the holes in the extension about 4 inches.
PERFECT!
