Looking for an old folding card table for leg parts

Off Topic

I want to make a short small folding table with a surface size of a large cookie sheet. I want to find a folding card table with legs I can remove, cut down. and use for this craft table build. It needs to be sturdy and hold some weight as I’ll be using it to do lead bullet casting work on a few times a year. I’ve looked at Lewisville CCA a few times now, but no folding card tables ever seem to show up there.

The end result will be something the size and height of a living room end table with literally a large cookie sheet affixed to the top.

A lead smelter, ingot molds, and a heating element will be sitting on top of this so it’s got to hold about 40 pounds easily.

I want to be able to fold it up small for storage as it will only be used 4 or 5 days a year.

Ideal would be an old card table that has strong metal folding legs that are bolted or riveted to the top and can be easily removed.

What about using conduit for legs? You can bend it really pretty easily.

Was hoping for a clean and complete folding leg assembly that locks into place that I can just cut down to the right height and fit some rubber feet on. When not in use, I want the table to fold flat and hang on the garage wall… When in use - those legs have to be rigid, locked in, and support lead weight and hot smelters and molten lead. So anything less than profoundly secured and stable isn’t to be considered for safety reasons.

I wish I had seen this sooner, just donated a table that might have been useful. I’ll keep an eye out
