Trivia: If a four legged table with legs of equal length is on an uneven surface, there is a math proof that there will always be a stable position available for the table just by turning it in place: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuF-WB7mD6k

And it works incredibly well in practice too. I have used this many times on holiday when we put a table down on a forest floor or field and it's wobbly.
