Abstract
The design of a suction table which would be inexpensive to construct; lightweight and easily hung on a wall when not in use; able to sit flush with a tabletop (requiring a hose attachment along one side); sufficiently thin to allow for transparency during light table application. Drawings of the prototype are reproduced, together with materials suppliers in the Philadelphia area.
