Yet Another Salon Table Variation

[waterdog]

I have a new salon table.    Actually it's a cockpit table that I made for my old boat re-purposed.   Requirements were as follows:

- much smaller than the old table to allow easy movement around
- still useable as a bed
- no complicated folding mechanisms to whack knees

Bonus features include the following:

- drawers underneath for cutlery and school supplies
- extension to the port side for cocktail placement from the port settee

I took the the old table and added about 3 inches on each side and trimmed it around with black walnut.   So it's made of mahogany, maple, birch, walnut, and teak.   I recycled the fiddles from the old salon table.   The side fiddles (fore and aft actually) are on removable pins.   The pins will allow me to make a couple of simple inserts that have a matching alignment of pins so they will drop in easily.   Photo 3 shows the fiddles removed as I am measuring up for the inserts.   

This table already makes a huge improvement in our enjoyment of the salon.
