Abstract: A framework for constructing free-standing counters includes opposed, rectangular first and second end frames, each having an inner face and an opposed outer face, as well as opposed, rectangular front and rear frames, each having oppositely- and outwardly-directed first and second ends. The first ends of the front and rear frames are each coupled to the inner face of the first end frame, and the second ends of the front and rear frames are each coupled to the inner face, to form a box structure having a top and an opposed bottom. The framework also includes ties which extend transversely from the first and second end frames to the front and rear frames. A leg is coupled to each tie for adjustment to extend below the bottom of the box structure.
