A multi use stand for supporting table tops, said stand comprising in combination: (a) a length of tubing, said tubing having an upper end for engaging and supporting the table top and a lower end for engaging a floor mounted member; (b) first collar means for circumscribing said tubing, said first collar means being disposed a sufficient distance from the lower end of said tubing to allow the lower end to engage the floor mounted member; (c) at least three legs; (d) means for pivotally attaching each of said legs to said first collar means to allow extension of said legs radially from said tubing; (e) second collar means for circumscribing said tubing, said second collar means being disposed a sufficient distance from the upper end of said tubing to allow the upper end to engage the table top; (f) at least three links; (g) means for pivotally securing each of said links to said second collar means; and (h) further means for pivotally securing each of said links to one of said legs; whereby, angular reorientation of said links in a plane radial to the tubing pivotally extends or retracts said legs with respect to said tubing to provide either a three legged stand for supporting the table top upon a surface or a stand for supporting the table top upon the floor mounted member, respectively.
