[ What we claimed is:] [1.] A furniture top board comprising:a plurality of sections each having a top, a bottom and at least one side for connection to at least one side of another section;a recess, for receiving a connector, formed in the at least one side of each adjacent section being connected,

[ What we claimed is:] [1.] A furniture top board comprising:a plurality of sections each having a top, a bottom and at least one side for connection to at least one side of another section;a recess, for receiving a connector, formed in the at least one side of each adjacent section being connected, the recess having an opening on the at least one side of each adjacent section and extending therefrom to an endpoint within each section deep enough to accommodate one half of the connector so adjacent sections abut when the adjacent sections are connected;a spring biased fixing means having a flat side exposed on the bottom of each adjacent section and a side opposite the flat side having a hook extending into the recess, the spring biased fixing means being pivotally mounted on each adjacent section proximate the endpoint of the recess such that the hook can engage the connector when the flat side of the spring biased fixing means is flush with the bottom of the section; andthe connector, for connecting two adjacent sections of the furniture top board, being engagable on opposite halves of a longitudinal axis with adjacent sections as well as being separately removable therefrom, the connector being sized so a first half of the connector fits into the recess of a first adjacent section whereby the hook of the spring biased fixing means of the first section engages a first depression on the first half of the connector thereby locking the first half of the connector into the recess and the second half of the connector fits into the recess of the second adjacent section whereby the hook of the spring biased fixing means of the second section engages a second depression on the second half of the connector thereby locking the second half of the connector into the recess of the second section causing the first and second adjacent sections to abut.
