Folding Cabin table??

My objective is to be able to rig or unrig the table with "a single motion" without need to fumble with bits and pieces. I don't plan to have it down unless there is a need for it yet the storage against the bulkhead should also be neat and not look like an stored ironing board.. If I can work out a neat leaf folding system I will become the face of a cabinet on the bulkhead. I've seen one system like that but could never make out the hinge details from the photos. Yes. I love my open area but haven't been in open water yet.. I'm sure I will want something to grab since the cabin trunk grab rails are at least 60 inches apart and the passage fwd/aft isn't down the middle.. I can't put full grab rails in the overhead because of head clearance. I may just run a 1/2"X1 1/2" slat type just under the deck beams.. My wife and I chartered a Sabre 34 about 11 or 12 years ago that had a bulkead mount table. I don't remember it looking too bad when up. It did have a single leg that folded, but I don't remember if it showed when the table was up. It occurs to me that you could have a hinged leg that would be hidden by the folded leaf, if the leaf folded under. Of course, if you fold it under you will need a way to hold it unfolded. If you had a leg on each half of the table, the undersides could be routed out to hold them. Rodney Myrvaagnes J36 Gjo/a "In this house we _obey_ the laws of thermodynamics." --Homer Simpson |
