Three Legged Tables Don't Wobble

I only discovered this today, and it's true. It's like when I was told left handers can't use those pens that screw to open/close, because they always close by themselves.

    Another fun table fact is that you can fix the wobble of a four-legged table by rotating it 90 degrees or less.

    a no legged table doesnt wobble either

      One legged tables neither, but there is a bit of problem getting a usable top.

    Any three points in space can be placed on the same plane.

    Trust me, they can wobble, especially if they aren't assembled properly. I had a 3 legged glass table that wobbled for years because the screws didn't align with the brackets.

      Isn't that due to a structural error? I don't think that has anything to do with it being 3 legged or not. 4 legged tables wobble all the time due to damage and stuff, does not mean they always wobble.
