The Kitchen Table - Who Invented It?

Many slight things in our everyday life come to us unnoticed and unappreciated such as wheels, erasers, scissors and things that make our lives easier and more comfortable. Have you ever concept "How would my life be without a table?" Things aren't just there for any reason. Person must've concept about why it should be there. Do you think kitchen's have tables just because?

But who invented the kitchen table? Although there have been no solid proofs that the antique Egyptians started using the kitchen tables first or at least invented it, many believe that the kitchen tables purpose was to keep all organized in the kitchen and not just for dining purposes. During the middle ages, the kitchen table was said to have been placed in the kitchen for the servants to dine on.

Not until October 6, 1896 did the kitchen table get a patent. One man, in the name of Henry A. Jackson, an African inventor decided it was time to build the kitchen and patent his invention. At that time, kitchen counters or islands weren't illustrious yet. The kitchen table served its purpose for preparing food and dining.

Like all that dates back to antique history, kitchen tables too have evolved and modified since then. The kitchen table has taken changes in shapes, sizes, color, material and design.

It's hard to pin point as to who invented the table exactly. But for whoever he or she or they were, we should be grateful that we a have something to host every member of the house to bond over with for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The Best Campers For Sale - The Short List of What to Look For

If you're getting into camping, campers are a great way to start. You'll find an abundant account of campers on the store due to the economy. Here's what to look for in a camper.

Two kinds of campers. You'll be finding at two kinds of campers these days, truck campers and tow-behinds which are now commonly called pop up campers because the top pops up when you expand it.   The pop up camper is very practical and economical. And don't think that pop up means primitive. Increasingly, you can look for hard-sided walls, a larger refrigerator, and dining inside and out. And you can tow them, and store them, just about anywhere. Something you can't say for most Rvs.   Most truck campers fit on the back of three-quarter to one-ton truck. They vary in price depending on size, accessories, and construction, though generally, you'll pay far less than you would for other Rvs because you won't be buying an engine or chassis. And many truck campers have equipment similar to that you would find in a gradually priced motor home.

Accoutrements. You'll want the camper to sleep at least 4, include a dinette table (and you should expect it to turn to a bed), an overhead bunk, and a queen-size bed over the cab. Also look for a double sink, a toilet in the rear, and a shower. The shower will be interior in higher priced models and face on lower priced.

Slide Outs. The newest rage in Rvs of all kinds is the slide out.  Slide outs allow travelers to expand the size of the camper speedily and easily, often turning a "hallway" into a nook. Slide outs are very controversial. Every person wants one; no one wants to do the maintenance to keep it from leaking colse to the seals. If you want a camper with slide outs, make sure you look into awnings for more protection.  

Often overlooked. If you're buying used campers for sale, making your good deal great, make sure you get aid records. They should have at least receipts for repairs, aid work, and perhaps routine maintenance.

Inspect anyway. Even if the records are impeccable, don't part with your money without an inspection. You'll save yourself time, money, and heartache by passing on lemons rather than fixing them.
