Extending Your RV Table For More Seating

I recently visited with my RV friends John and Evelyn Culver who are full timing in a 2003 Monaco Windsor motorhome. I asked John if he had done anything new to his coach since I saw him last year. He immediately went into the bedroom and pulled a piece of plywood out from under the bed. He showed me how he was able to make a table extension so they could accommodate more family and friends. On his table there is about a quarter inch space between the table top and the cabinet where the table moves in and out. He cut the plywood to extend his table another 10 inches. He used a router to make the “lip” edge on the plywood to fit snugly under the open space. Evelyn enjoys the bigger table when it’s covered with a tablecloth and surrounded by people she loves. What can you do if your RV doesn’t have a space to slide the extension under? Use a small cargo strap and ratchet to secure the table extension. When covered with a table cloth you won’t even notice it. Bringing new ideas to your table every day - Jim Twamley, Professor of RVing
