Dining table conversion to bed
While on a trip I converted my dining table to abed for the first time and found the front of the table needed support. I found that the company that made the legs for my dining table mad a 1 foot one. I ordered one assuming it would fit, it did not it needed to be 14" and the company did not make one. So I cut a 14" piece of 2" PVC heated and softened one end at a time(with a heat gun) rolling the end in my had with a leather glove on to protect from the heat to get it narrow enough and stuck the end into the mounting hole to form it. seems to have worked pretty good.
