If you live in an apartment building and have a balcony, you could consider setting up a folding table to help you optimize space as much as possible. Instead of a regular table that can get in the way and is hard to fit, especially in small spaces, a folding table offers several advantages and can be folded away in a few moves without taking up much room.
This folding table can be mounted on both the balcony wall and the balustrade.

A board of MDF or chipboard;
Reciprocating saw/handsaw;
Grinding/sanding machine
Metal drill bits for drilling holes.
Paint and brush/spray gun
Holsuruburi;
Pencil and ruler;

Smooth the edges with a sander or sandpaper;
Cut another triangular piece of plywood with a length of 70 centimeters and a width of 30 centimeters; this section will form the support leg.
Using the metal drills, make holes in ascending order, starting with the smallest drill bit at the pointed end of the triangle.
Cut another piece of plywood on which the support leg will be attached with a hinge.
Paint all elements except hinges using a glue gun or brush.
Secure the triangle with screws to the center of the support plywood.
Attach the tabletop to a fascia board of the same length using hinges, and prepare them for fixing to the balcony wall or balustrade.
Determine the location where you want to place the folding table and secure it with sturdy holtscrews. Ensure that the table is level.
Secure the countertop to the support element using
