The support base of claim 1 , further comprising: (e) a work surface mounted onto the width support and the at least one depth-adjustable support. The support base of claim 1 , wherein the at least one depth-adjustable support comprises a pair depth-adjustable supports, one disposed on each of the first and second ends of the width support. The support base of claim 1 , wherein the at least one height-adjustable support comprises a plurality of height-adjustable supports, one disposed adjacent each of the first and second ends of the width support. The support base of claim 4 , wherein the at least one length-adjustable foot support comprises a plurality of length-adjustable foot supports each attached to the lower end of a respective height-adjustable support. The support base of claim 1 , wherein the at least one length-adjustable foot support further comprises a housing and an extension member that is movable relative to the housing from a first position defining a first, shortest length of the at least one length-adjustable foot support, to a second position defining a second length of the at least one length-adjustable foot support that is longer than the first, shortest length. The support base of claim 6 , wherein the extension member further comprising an end cap, and wherein the end cap abuts the housing when the extension member is in the first position. The support base of claim 6 , wherein the end cap is spaced from the housing when the extension member is in the second position. The support base of claim 8 , further comprising a spacer disposed between the end cap and the housing when the extension member is in the second position to prevent the extension member from extending back into the housing and to fix the length of the at least one length-adjustable foot support. The support base of claim 9 , wherein the length of the spacer may be varied in order to vary the length of the at least one length-adjustable foot support. The support base of claim 6 , wherein the extension member is telescopically received within the housing. The support base of claim 11 , further comprising one or more fasteners for securing the extension member to the housing. A length-adjustable foot support for a table support base comprising: (a) a housing having a longitudinal axis; (b) an extension member that is movable along the longitudinal axis relative to the housing from a first position defining a first, shortest length of the length-adjustable foot support, to a second position defining a second length of the length-adjustable foot support that is longer than the first, shortest length; (c) the extension member further comprising an end cap, and wherein the end cap abuts the housing when the extension member is in the first position. The length-adjustable foot support of claim 13 , wherein the end cap is spaced from the housing when the extension member is in the second position. The length-adjustable foot support of claim 14 , further comprising a spacer disposed between the end cap and the housing when the extension member is in the second position to prevent the extension member from extending back into the housing and to fix the length of the at least one length-adjustable foot support. The length-adjustable foot support of claim 15 , wherein the length of the spacer may be varied in order to vary the length of the at least one length-adjustable foot support. The length-adjustable foot support of claim 13 , wherein the extension member is telescopically received within the housing. The length-adjustable foot support of claim 13 , further comprising one or more fasteners for securing the extension member to the housing. The length-adjustable foot support of claim 15 , further comprising a kit having a plurality of length-adjustable foot supports, one or more spacers, and one or more fasteners. |
