1. A tension-stabilized, quick assembly knock down, expansion cantilever table system, comprising:
a frame assembly, said frame assembly having a plurality frame members;
said frame members including a plurality of generally vertical leg members, a horizontal upper ring member and a horizontal lower base member, said frame members being linked and interconnected to one another;
said upper ring member and said base member being generally circular, said base member being larger in diameter than said upper ring member;
said ring member, said base member and said leg members alone forming a non-rigid and unstable frame assembly;
said unstable frame assembly allowing an undesirable rotational change in alignment of said frame assembly upon application of pressure forces;
a tabletop, said tabletop having an underside;
said underside having a protruding central neck, and a circular channel about said central neck;
said central neck being larger in diameter than said ring member;
said ring member slidingly engaged with, and expanding around, said central neck, and detachable secured within said tabletop circular channel;
said tabletop protruding central neck and circular channel together housing and expanding said frame assembly, interlocking, tensioning and stabilizing said unstable frame assembly when assembled together; and
said table top and said frame members form a spring network when assembled.
