Does anyone have an idea were i can scource a couple of pieces of wood/contiboard to match my caravans furniture/cabinetts etc.

I'm wanting to make a smaller table, as the one I have is massive and heavy.

also where could I buy a leg/support for the said table.

(I dont want to rob the one off the big table)

Looks good and not badly priced, but i,m set on making a small workable wooden/conti table.

My real problem is to where to source the conti/laminate to match as close as possible to the existing cupboards

I simply replaced the top of the table supplied with our van with a piece of plywood which I tailored to be the size I wanted. I then covered this with some plasticated material from Boyes which I stapled on.

It makes a good tablecloth and is easily wipe clean. It doesn't need to match the existing furniture.

When we sell the van I'll simply put the original table top back.

Best Regards

I used a round wooden chopping or bread board from TKMaxx or M&S (no corners to knock into), and the local caravan shop had the standard aluminium "cup" or base to screw onto the underside (so the table needs to be solid enough to take long screws) - the standard table leg fits into this (we have 2 such legs in our MH, for the 2 tables that it comes with). This wee round table is ideal for drinks, before the big table/s is/are needed for the meal. It then travels in what we call the dog food cupboard, behind one of the seats.
