They should have you on retainer at Airstream.  

We get by with a Costco Lifetime Plastics kids card table that's 24"x24" and weighs about 5 pounds.  I beefed up the bottom to hold the pedestal base.  The nice thing is that it doubles as a coffee table outside or, if I use the pvc leg extenders, a full height table.  We don't use the dinette as a bed.  

But, like I said, you're welcome to come down to Dayton, NV, this winter ..... Wink

Again, the work is beautiful.  I am very envious of your skill.

Something else to put on the to-do list.  On our last trip, I noticed the sink caulking was peeling up so while I did recaulk it, I didn't really inspect anything else.  But I never have liked the way it is recessed into the counter....always looked like a really good crud catcher to me.  Will inspect it better for sure.  Thanks for the heads up Dave.

Mark, I can't stress it enough that late model Pod owners like you and I need to check and double check how your sink is mounted under the counter. A few easy to make brackets can solve the problem if you don't mind acting like a contortion artist with getting under the sink so you can install these brackets. Why FR didn't use brackets to mount the sink and only the lips of a few screw heads is beyond me?
