Each of a pair of lower support arms engage the underside of the table at a point forward of the U-shaped member's engagement. Each support arm is mounted by means of a rotatable sleeve on one of the U-shaped member's end portions. Connected to each sleeve is a curved member having a downwardly extending arm portion, a forwardly extending arm portion, and an upwardly extending end portion. The downwardly extending end portion extends in a direction away from the axis of rotation of the sleeve, while the upwardly extending end portion extends in a direction towards the axis of rotation of the sleeve. The lengths of each of the lower support arms' downwardly extending arm portions is less than one-half of the distance between the sleeves.
