Side table attachment

Postby suckerpunched » Sun Mar 10, 2013 4:35 pm

how do some of you attach the side table to the wall of your trailer? I've seen the long rail things but want something with maybe just a couple single hooks that can slide into small holders...I looking at making a small(24"x36") side table with single leg just for cooking on but don't want a big piece of metal attatched to the wall....any ideas????
Thanks TC

Patrick table rail is the norm (and the system I bet Slow is referring to), spreading the load out across multiple anchor points is important for any lightweight construction.

Like these?

Aluminum extrusions from Frank Bear's Teardrop project on Ebay.

I'm thinking of using them on the side of my teardrop, but haven't figured out how to mount them securely on my trailer.
