A sturdy, flexible table solution from Lagun, with a custom table top that reaches any seat in the camper. See the Stove-Sink video to view the Lagun Table in action.
While we tend toward DIY, when a product is available that we can't improve upon, we save the time. The Lagun table requires only a stable mounting structure and your own table top. We built a double wall in our front storage cabinet to make sure the support was sturdy. Then we made a simple table top using faux-woodblock formica from the same $5 Restore scrap as our "kitchen" countertop with the stove/sink combo.
To make a nice table edge, we used the thinner T-molding on the left, mimicking what FWC did on the furnace cabinet top that we removed. T-molding is available online but a hand router is needed to put a slot around the edge of the table top into which the barbed portion of the T-molding is glued. Caution, our inexpensive router just barely lasted long enough to get this job done. Spend a little more, or borrow/rent one.
We used multiple bungies to hold the T-molding in place while the construction adhesive cured. With the right slot thickness (specified for each T-molding size), the barbs pretty much hold it in place, but just to make sure, I used the bungees.
The table swings against the front wall to get it out of the way, then we lower it onto the front cushion so it doesn't block the driver's view through the windows and out the back door of the camper. We like to see what is behind us.
Notice the diamond shaped pattern on the front window? We were pretty sure, at some point, either we or one of the grandkids would loosen the Lagun table pivot arm too much and swing it back against the window hard enough to break it. We found a garden fence-type, diamond-shaped metal lattice that we attached to the window to protect it. We used existing screws in the window frame along with nylon webbing loops to hold it firmly in place. It does not block the view at all and has taken several blows, protecting the front window of the camper!
Our "mini kitchen" countertop and Lagun table top match nicely and work great. As you can see, the table can really be easily reached by any seat in the house - even the throne! (OK, sorry for that visual. We do have a bathroom privacy curtain, but more on that on a later page.)

*Note, there are very similar and less expensive knock-offs on Amazon for the Lagun table, but I cannot vouch for them so I am only providing links to the actual items I used from other online vendors. I get a small commission only for Amazon links but want to link only the items that worked for us.
