i'd like to make a wood coffee table that has folding legs and is less than 2" tall when folded.
was thinking of using a 1" tall plank of wood and metal rods (or thin pipes) for legs. i know nothing about carpentry or mechanical engineering - trying to figure out how to attach the rods to table top. any suggestions?
are there special hinges/attachment points for attaching a rod to a flat surface so that the rod can pivot 180 deg?

i was thinking of something like pic related. the black part is the metal leg, and the blue part is the "hinge" that would attach to the wood with screws. does this hinge have a special name? how can i stop the metal leg's rotation at a specific angle (e.g. when it's unfolded 90 degrees to table top)?

not portable, collapsable (for storage). don't give a shit about the carpet.
