Thanks for the responses everyone. I think I am going to go for about a 4 foot by 2 foot table made of 7-ply plywood ( as the top ) and 5 4x4s cut to about 24 inches for table legs. As for the top covering, I was thinking of stapling some some cheap carpet remnants or even some linoleum remnant for easy clean-up. Then, atop the linoleum I will drape the fabric material for the photos. Wish me luck!
