Capstan Transforming Table

The Fletcher Capstan Table is a round table that is amazingly capable of doubling its seating capacity and, just as astonishingly, remains truly circular in the process.  

Very importantly it stores its expansion leaves within itself.  Existing tables can seat six persons when small, and twelve or more when expanded, but there are other design possibilities. A Video of the transformation process can be seen below:

Operation, which has been described as ‘pure magic’ by Boat International magazine, really is a sight to behold and extremely quick, it taking mere seconds to complete an entire expansion or reduction cycle.
