Removing dinette

[trtog7]

We are thinking of removing booth dinette and replacing with table and chairs
How difficult is it to remove and does it depend on manufacturer
We have an Tiffin Allegro

Here's what we used:

Ours didn't have a dinette, it had table and chairs but if it was a dinette I would have taken it out and put in the desk/table setup. We use ours like the second picture works great. Table slides under the desk for travel like in the first photo.

Desk and Table are very well made.

Thanks.
I did not take pictures. Except for a before picture.

But should be able to explain how I did it.
Table and chairs came from a RV surplus place in Elkhart, IN.
Cabinets on either side are 24" X 30" X 12" deep unfinished wall cabinets from Home Depot. Top is a piece of 1" X 12" X 8' Oak. Added a 1" X 3" X 8' piece to the 12" wide piece to make overall width 13 1/4" wide. The center shelf that ties the 2 cabinets together is 1" X 3" long enough to give correct spacing for table to set in. I spaced out sides of table to allow heavy duty drawer slides proper clearance. Table legs are made from a couple of stair rail spindles. Table pushes in from picture 12". There is a extension on the table that allows 4 people to set at table. Everything else is just screwing the parts together with cabinet screws.
Got the idea from pictures at Focal Wood Products. Problem was all his cabinets were 16" or deeper. I needed something close to 12". Check their site for other ideas for doing a table install.

ronfisherman - That's beautiful! I'd love to see how you did it. Do you have pictures taken during the construction?

[ronfisherman]

Easy to Remove. Usually just a few screws. If your dinette is in a slide. There probably is not much under the seats. Here a picture of what I did to ours a few year ago.

There isn't too much holding those dinettes together. You'll have marks and small holes in the floor where the frame used to be. Also, most dinettes have storage and/or plumbing, etc underneath. So you'll have to figure out that also.
