flip out dinette table broken can't find replacement

[wpatters1229]

We have a 2005 Four Winds 28 ft RV with one of those flip dinette tables that converts into a bed. It is mounted on the wall and you lift it up and it comes loose and swings down onto the edges of the bench frames to make a bed. The table edge got broken...not sure if the wife dropped it or what happened but would like to just replace the table. It seems like it is a strange size since I can not find anything like it out on the Internet. It is 42" long and 24" wide depending on if you count the molding on the edge it might be a half inch wider.
Does anyone know of a web site that sells such a size?

Walt's RV in Fontana carries different and interesting RV parts. Plan on being there all day if you go. Used, new, one of a kind, taillights, all types of items taken off but nearly

new from different manufacturers. They moved into a warehouse last year or so, for those that have been there you may ask, how. It's like a RV swap meet.

There are a few RV dinette tables on EBAY. Maybe one of them will work for you.

These are all RV liquidators and have a variety of stuff. I think they all have table tops. . . you would just have to inquire about the size.

when I replaced my table I just had Lowe's/Home Depot do the one free cut on the 2 x 4 oak plywood to make it 2 ft. x 32 inches, or whatever the appropriate length was. the edging 1 x 2s? were easy to do myself.

Ya beat me to it , I live about 20 minutes away from this place.
The main guy that ran it passed away , but the shop is still there.
They have enough stuff to build a MH, TT from all the parts they have ! We go there once in awhile just to look through all the stuff they have !

On our 5000 , previous owner did something and broke the corner next to wall, and bent the brackets to remove it to lower it.
I removed the brackets, went down to Ace Hardware and bought a long door hinge (look at your bathroom door hinge )
Its just the 2 of us and don't plan on anybody else so mounted the table to the wall with the hinge.

I have a good friend that does wood working, so this winters project we are going to do what a few above have done "make a new table top".
I'm going to save the plastic/molding edge and on the new piece for table top will either router or use table saw and put a groove in the sides so I can put the old plastic/molding trim back on.
Not to mention will be ALOT lighter too 😉

The way I have it set up now with the hinge its solid and doesn't wiggle and make noise like it did before with all the sloppy hardware .

Bontragers RV Surplus in White Pigeon, Michigan had lots of finished table tops when I visited in May.. They also sell folding legs. I think they were $9. 866-483-7017

We actually took our "swing down" table assembly off and screwed in two folding legs. We like the ability to move our dinette table. The grands move it close; my dh, with an amble belly, 🙂 moves it away for easy entry.

On one of our old TTs, I got tired of lifting the heavy MDF table so I made a 1x1 ladder frame and skinned it with 1/4" hardwood ply that matched the cabinets. Shot it with Minwax urethane. Looked nice and was so much lighter to set up.

I agree with the make one (or get one made) approach. A rectangle of plywood, some edge reinforcement and possibly molding or other edge treatment, and some laminate or whatever cemented to the top, and you've got a new table that's probably better than the original. None of this is complicated cabinetmaking in the least.

Measure your table then try these people.

Get a cabinet maker to build you a new one. We did ours ourselves, but many people can't. Plywood will be better and lighter. Edge trim or molding might be a problem.

I replaced my dinette table in my bounder to make it narrower and more belly friendly. got a 2 x 4 sheet of an Oak laminated plywood, used oak 1 x ? for the edging, looked better than factory. still have it somewhere around, put the original back in when I sold the RV.
