Dinette Table Leg
Curt- my table leg is cantelevered to the top of the channel box on the side
of the coach. Since this is a very stable arrangement, don't think you could lower it, unless you removed the screws. Makes a very nice uncluttered arrangement, though. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

Dinette Table Leg
Our dinette table leg is anchored to the table top with several screws.
Some time ago someone mentioned modifying the dinette table leg so it would hinge, or the leg could be easily removed to make the table a bed. Anyone??? -- Curt Sprenger 1987 PT38 8V92, Anaheim Hills, Calif. |

Dinette Table Leg
Ernie,
I knew someone had done something like what you describe. Is that leg completely above the channel box? My thinking is this, I could make up a receiver for the leg at the outer table end, and do the same at the channel box or just above it. Insert the leg in the two receivers and all is good (hopefully), lift table slightly and remove the leg. No screws. Thoughts?

Dinette Table Leg
One of the oldest and in my opinion best places to find excellent
quality materials for woodworking is at Constantines in New York City established in 1812. I have bought many many things from them and they are a wonderful place to visit. The folding leg brackets shown on this page http://tinyurl.com/qqe3m . may be what you are looking for.

Curt, my table leg is a piece of square tubing with a angle bracket welded to
both ends. One sits on the box and one fits under the table lip. Both ends are screwed in , but have removed the table before- no problem. Ernie Ekberg 83 PT40 Livingston, Montana [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

Tom,
Thanks for the link. Looks like a couple items could be used. Curt Sprenger 1987 PT38 8V92, Anaheim Hills, Calif.

Dinette Table Leg
--- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, Curt Sprenger
> Curt... I also wanted to convert the dinett to a bed. I ordered quick disconnect table brackets for wall to table and disconnect brackets for the table leg, from a web site(http://www.http:sailboatstuff.com).I already installed the wall brackets and the table leg brackets should be here tommorrow.The table top is coreon(sp) and very heavy. I also installed a steel angle bracket to the rear bench(89 sp36)to support the table when in bed position. The front bench has a support. I am going to add a temparory support under the table too. Dont want to crack it> I could send photos if it would help.

The wall brackets are there in our coach, same as I have seen in RVs for
years. The supports for the table top when down to make a bed are there too. Beyond me why BB made the table leg stationary, maybe the previous owner made the leg stationary. I'll attend the next NHRA event at Pomona, buy a pit pass, and bring a whole lot of questions to ask him. Do you have the part number(s) for the leg bracket that you ordered? Thanks. I'd be interested in what you are adding for the temporary support. Pictures of all please. Thank you. Curt Sprenger 1987 PT38 8V92, Anaheim Hills, Calif.
