I hadn't even noticed that - it's a great idea. Tough to make all the joinery line up along the length of the hinged flap!

Probably why I never thought of it....definitely beyond my skill range lol

Every table I've thought to build either had flat trays that pull out or trays that are covered by the removable tabletop

I play on a friend's purchased table. It has some little pull out writing shelves and cupholders that we never use because they aren't quite In the right spot. We pretty much just play on the sunken felt surface. It works fine.

What I'd really like is for the trays to be at the same height as the table (so you're not looking so far down) with some sort of flip up wall. But I guess the same could be accomplished with folded cardboard
