I need a 4x8 table where the legs don't get in the way of the chairs, that is sturdy and also can be taken apart to get into the podcast room. For under $700. The perfect table doesn't exist

Short answer is:  Buy a sturdy, lightweight, folding table of adequate size and cover it with some funky fabric that suits your mood and personality. They are not expensive at all and will someday make a great table for distributing cookies to the RS degenerates.

What's a good Christmas gift for a woman not a big fan of clothes, jewelry or perfume?

It would be fiscally irresponsible of me to invest in tools to build a table when I will never use them again. Tools are not my thing.

Money to buy what she wants
Gun or accessories if she shoots or you want her to, lol
Carry purse's are fantastic  or a designer handbag if she doesn't carry
latest kitchen gadgetry if she cooks
New beautiful and comfy bedding that's super warm for where you live, lol
puppy or horse
hunting trip
training class if she shoots
cooking lessons if she needs them
ballroom dancing lessons for the heck of it, but you participate. It's a lot of laughs and fun.
tractor, lol
new car
vacation trip

All depends on how much you want to spend. i can come up with more if I knew her preferences in life.

Try this on: It would be fiscally irresponsible completely awesome of me to invest in tools to build a table when I will never use them again until I come to the realization that I am no longer beholden to Ikea. Tools are not my thing yet .

Tools are my addiction.  Buy some, use them once and then send them to me for a Christmas gift.

Fluffy would suggest a snow shovel, so I'm going to go with that!

I'm only kidding, but if she likes to cook you can't go wrong with some nice cookware from Le Creuset, or perhaps a nice Air Fryer from Cuisinart.

Or don't take my advice, I'm no longer married so I have no idea what woman want or need anymore.

We did ballroom dancing when we were dating, it was a lot of fun.

If I tried to buy her cooking lessons, I'd get brained with my favorite Griswold cast iron skillet.

I do 95% of the cooking in the house.

Scored last year on the comfy bedding with one of those super heavy fleece blankets.

She also has the carry purse and uses it daily. to carry her G42.

Vacation trip may be the thing, but Covid is still fucking everything up.

I just need to get out and shop to see what the latest gee whiz is.

+1 for MT, they know what .280AI is.

Last year just before hunting season I'm in my LGS and on a whim I ask for a box of .280, can't hurt to have another, you know?  They have a new guy behind the counter, he gives me a look of disgust and says "you mean .380, right?" I replied "no, I mean .280.  Like when you neck down 30-06 to 7mm."  He gave me a quizzical look, walked over to the pistol ammo, and searched the spot next to .380, then returned to tell me that nope, they didn't have it, and didn't even have a place on the shelf for it.  Was I really sure I needed .280 instead of .380?

I got another guy who promptly sold me a box of 139gr ballistic tip.
