Very cheap cab table

  1. I have called off my search for an original Westy cab table as they seem to be as rare as the proverbial hens teeth and I have gone and made myself something nice for less than £20..
    I had the idea when I visited the flying boat museum in Pembroke Dock during the summer, alongside all of the fascinating pieces of metal and memorabilia I spotted an old projector table and started a quest.

    Projector table from car boot sale £5

    Wardrobe pole and fitting left over from a previous DIY project (call it a fiver to be safe as I wouldn't want to be accused of cheating)

    A few screws and half an hour of my time later this is what I have

  4. Very nicely done!
    My bus came with the original front table and I have to tell you, I honestly think yours looks better than mine! It's even a little bit longer, which would be handy.
    It's a nice place for a small lamp when camping too, by the way.
