Title: Dinette table mod
Post by: jimt on October 29, 2016, 01:15:44 PM
 We didn't like the dinette table in our 16 TBS so much,  so I changed it up. Made it longer and narrower. I found a table on Hayneedle for $60.
Cut and trimmed it to fit. In the end we have a table with more room than before and it is easy to get in and out of the seats now. All I have left to do is sand it down on the edges a little and stain it.I have about 40 minutes in to this project now and expect another 20 or so. Easy to do really.

What did you use to attach it to the wall and did you use screws?

I did not attach it to the wall. Matter fact that side drops down also.I did trim that leaf side some. It fits very close to the wall, but does not really touch it.
I plane to stain it this weekend and will try and get closer better pictures for you. The table is very sturdy and does not wobble around like the other top did.
It is all around a much better Dinette now.

I'm still waiting on the stain to dry , but did get a better close up for you see how close cut it is. It does look
like it is attached , but it isn't.
I have a few more images I will try and add also. Hope it doesn't bother anyone posting all of these images.
