Folding lap board

A folding lap table comprising:

• a pair of flat, rigid panels each having an upper and a lower surface, front and rear edges, an interior edge and a laterally facing side edge,
• a raised rim on said upper surfaces of both of said panels extending along said front and laterally facing side edges thereof,
• a hinge joining said panels together along their interior edges, whereby said panels are foldable so that their lower surfaces face each other and are unfoldable so that their upper surfaces reside in mutually coplanar relationship, and
• a fabric covering on each of said panels extending across the entire expanses of said upper surfaces, over said rims, and onto said lower surfaces thereof.

A lap table comprising:

• a pair of flat, rigid, panels shaped in mirror image configurations each having an upper and a lower surface, a mutually abutting straight interior edge, a forwardly facing front edge, a laterally facing side edge, and a rearwardly facing back edge,
• rims on each of said panels rising from said upper surfaces thereof and extending along said forwardly facing front edges and along said laterally facing side edges,
• a hinge attached to join said panels together at their mutually abutting straight interior edges, whereby said panels fold together with their lower surfaces disposed in abutment against each other, and said panels alternatively unfold so that their upper surfaces reside in coplanar disposition with each other, and
• fabric coverings extending across said upper surfaces, over said rims and onto said lower surfaces of both said panels.
