A. Select the rectangle and then use the trim command to trim out the center section. Break apart (Ctrl+K) the result. Smooth the curved nodes with the Node Edit Tool (F10).

We will need to illustrate the hinging feature. Copy the left side section to the clipboard (Ctrl+C).To transform the objects into a top/front view:


Select the shapes and use the Transform Docker to apply an "86.6% Vertical Scale, a -30.0 degree Horizontal Skew, followed by a -30.0 degree Rotate." The top will be blue smoked glass.

If you own Tech Drawing Tools apply a top extrusion of 1” to the tabletop. If you must proceed manually, use the extrude tool with the back parallel setting and experiment until you get the object to the correct dimension and straight down. The result should resemble the illustration.
