Look at Motorhome Fun ads for motorhome accesories page 2 there is one there £100
mondo Posted October 18, 2009 Author Posted October 18, 2009 £100 quid seems a tad expensive for a table and fittings I don't wanna pay that amount.......£50 quid tops would be my offer!! I would like to mount it on the nearside sofa. Thanks for the heads up K58 !!
Mel B Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 If you get really stuck, you could buy a new one: table arm A table top can be sources from them as well, or look in places like Ikea etc for something suitable.
le canichot depang Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Hi Mondo We too have looked at a swing out table but the prices for one from the Swift factory (as fitted in Bessacar) are up to £500. We are probably going to get one in France next time we goover, they have them at Narbonne accessories for about 40euro, then we'll use a B & Q door of some sort or rounded piece of MDF with laminate. Maybe it might be worth contacting the custom van builders as they use smaller tables, if you find something sooner please advise - hope the startrail is going good :-D
flicka Posted October 20, 2009 Posted October 20, 2009 Hi Mondo It would be worth trying Magnum Motorhomes, Grimsby or O'Leary's, Beverley (see Business Directory above) both have websites. Both do the swing out table legs. Tey both also do a selection of tops. I fitted a "chrome swan neck" leg from Magnum's to our Autocruise Sportstar, cost around £60, including fittings. We matched this with a suitably sized solid top for £25.(new) They also had a selection of preformed tops from around £5 to £15, ex-manufactrer's superceded models stock. Not sure of your location, but suspect the other Parts advertisers in MMM will also have similar
Star - Line 655 Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 I purchased an aluminium swing out table arm from Swift and it cost me £100 including carriage. The table top clamp was extremely well made but the clamp for securing the arm to the furniture was only a collar with a pinch bolt and this resulted in the table not being very well secured in position, particularly when travelling. The table tended to swing unless the pinch bolt was fastened very tightly, resulting in the aluminium arm being damaged. I read Mel B's response and had a look at the one advertised on E-Bay and it turned out to be exactly what I had purchased from Swift, except that it came with two of the table clamps and almost half the price. Going through the Buy Now procedure and Guest Buyer screen I discovered the sellers Web site, Surejust Ltd and their tele number. I telephoned Matthew to enquire if I could buy a clamp only and had one in the post the same day. Great service. Result, a perfect job. Incidently their web site does not show this product but you can see more of it if you navigate through Mel B's response into E-Bay and then beyond. Hope this is of some help to you and others looking for a swing out table arm.

Those on sale by Magnum are chrome plated steel and to ensure the table is stable whilst travelling there are 3 "dimples" for the clamp screw to positively locate. hope this helps :-)
carebear Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Try www.caktanks.com Bought ours from them few years back now, gave details to friends they had one delivered a few weeks back. Bought a top at one of the shows, sure it was Olearys at Peterbourgh. Only ever see caktanks at NEC shows.
