When you need to move the wing off the bench, you just slide it over, and let the end of the wing tip down to the lower height of the table, slide it (it has a slick table top), lower the other end down, thus effecting the transfer. Works in reverse, and is workable by a party of 1. The wing is stored on the table, and moved off to different storage only when it is complete.
