I really like the setup that MichLUG used in their layout at GATS this
past weekend.  Here's a good picture:

They've used what looks like probably 1/8" plexi in a 2 x 2 grooved
base.  They've got different lengths of both base and plexi.  If you
look carefully at the side that heads up and to the left, you can see
about a one foot length right at the end.

Yep they are 4ft. and 1ft. lengths.
They also have the white edge cover (don't know the proper name) along
the top edge of the plexi, which makes it stiffer, more visible, and
protects it, and viewers from edge and or points on the ends.

I can't tell from the picture how the 2 x 2 base is attached to the
tables.  Perhaps someone can email one of them (I just don't have the
time) to ask them.

Clips.
I also like their skirting.  It's obviously a lighter fabric (looks
like cotton sheeting to me), and is pleated, to allow some expansion.
It looks great.

Provided by GATS.
From the looks of the picture I think the skirting may just be stapled
(at the pleats) directly to the 2 x 2.  Simple solution, and probably
works just fine.

Yep using my staple gun.Works great.
I now it's too late for this show, but it would be nice to find out
what plexi product they used, and how it was attached, etc.

I'll call steve R who made them and see if he can take a picture of one of
them and post it.All we ask for is 1000 bricks for each copy you make:-)j/k
