I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas as of the feasability of this and how it might be done. I am looking to build a wall mounted desk to save some space. It can be simple but I need a fairly good amount of table space (close to that of a 5' folding table) and I would like it to be able to fold upwards. That way after using it I could just fold it up flat against the wall to save tons of space.
Here is a pic of a wall mounted desk...... (http://www.furniture-for-small-spaces.com/images/diy_files/wall-desk1.jpg)
The main difference is that mine would be foldable and not L shaped : )
thanks for any input you can give

Welcome to the forums!
It is defenitely doable. The hardest part would be the supports for when it's in use and fashioning it in a manner where it wouldn't be unsightly when folded up.
