Do you know for a four legs table no matter the floor it sits on. There is always a rotational position where all it's legs touch ground at the same level.
For circular tables that are uneven you can just rotate the table until it sits right.
For square tables you may check the 90° angles to see if you are lucky.
Edit: This theory works with even legs + uneven (bumpy) floors. For your own safety do not test this the other way around.
That's just so wildly not true that I can't believe you didn't work it out for yourself in the time it took you to type that up.
To test your theory, envision a floor that is a perfectly level pane of glass. Then picture a 4 legged table where one leg is just an eighth inch shorter than the other 3.
You can spin that table all day and there's never going to be a position where it doesn't wobble.
Yep, it works the other way around. Even legs uneven floor.
Interesting that it works the other way...I assume that in that scenario, there's also no guarantee that the table would be anywhere close to level in whatever position eliminates wobble?
