For height adjustment set for the lowest height as you did. Then drill a row of 1/4" holes vertically say 1" increments maybe 6 of them, in the bottom of the PVC pipe all the way through. Get a pin that fits all the way through and lift pipe slide pin at desired height. Black pipe will sit on pin and still rotate. Just watch for clearance for a countertop overhang. May have to add a spacer block or cut countertop back flush. I have a new vid on it
Can’t tell you how thrilled I am to have found this video. The Lagun mount is too large for our little van and I was fast running out of ideas - thank you so much!
What an awesome build! How do you stop the connection points of the metal pipe from unscrewing, so your table top doesn't tilt and has things falling off? Did you weld them together?
The video of how you built your combination work and dinner table was absolutely interesting. Your Canadian ingenuity won the day! I cannot wait until you take us on the road through Canada!
@@PaulSchortemeyer There's a company in U.K. making them but the two parts are $200. I'll post the link when I have time. Somebody should get them and copy it
I'll build the same table for my sailboat but I am not sure yet on how I will make it LOCK in position when sailing. Maybe you hae done something like that already. But then you probly either drive or sit, so no need for table repositioning while driving. Yes, it will be put away for the heavy sailing. Maybe a pin through the flange for fixing the table from turning on the thread and something like a bicycle clamp for the bottom thingamabob... anyhow, great job and greetings to BC ...
Oh cool! We haven’t looked into any locking mechanisms because we always detach it when unneeded… but keep us posted what you design because we’d love to hear it! 😊
@@EricandSarah 😊 on the road...any plans where to go to first?? I just can't wait to get to Ecuador but, still have to wait for my pension or, I could go now but, would then lose it all so, I am staying.....ok, love Ireland but, as I am sure you know, when one have made a decision it just has to happen now....never thought I would come to this point when I am looking forward to "retire"...do now but, as I am sure you also know, I have no plans to stop working online which can be done From the jungle 😊 Can you make a living working online while travelling!? I hope you can!! Have a good Sunday!!
The van is really coming along. We look forward to seeing your first destination 😊 BC is beautiful! We're heading to Kootenay and Yoho for the next couple weeks 😊
So simple and yet so brilliant table solution! The wood looks amazing as well. Do you have a specific place to store the plate and lock the pipe construction?
Great question! The horizontal steel pipe and connector fit on a little ledge under our couch and the tabletop fits behind our couch or under the top bed. Maybe we’ll try show you in a future video :)
Love the table. So functional!! I really like the color. I (Gladys) love dark wood. Our tiny house has dark would as well. Can’t wait to see the finished product 😁
Thank you so much for this design. I need a place to create art in my minivan so my table needs to be at least 22 x 30 in. Do you think one center plate in the middle would be enough to hold it steady?
Brilliant isea. But takes some believing to say it's stable. With such a small part that fixes it to top I'm sure it will move quite a lot if you leaned on one edge. I might try to find a piece of metal similar size to lagun type
Definitely! It will twist if you put too much weight on one side. What you could do is a screw/pin on a flat piece of metal similar to the lagun tables. Attach it to the round base so it still spins. Then you just have to have something to spin the table onto so it’s all separate & saves space for storage. Good thinking!
Thanks for a great tutorial! I followed this exactly and discovered that the inside diameter of PVC pipe differs. I have 3/4 in steel pipe and 1-in PVC and it will not fit in it :-( back to the store again😂
One thing that you can do to lower costs is use emt 3/4in conduit, not to mention it's far lighter, and you can still use those iron fittings or use Maker Pipe custom fittings... However really great video!
I’m trying to figure out how to do a swivel table that is also able to adjust vertically. I was thinking to install two pvc pipes with end caps at different heights so I would be able to lift the table out of one and put it into the other. Might have to put a strong bracket at the bottom of each pipe since it would be raised off of the ground. Any other ideas?
Hi. We're also in the middle of our diy campervan build and like the idea of the swivel table. However, we think that the table will move away from us while eating, sice it's not loked in place. Any idea's how we can lock the table in place? I thought about drilling a hole trough both the pvc and metal pipe and put a pin of some sort trough it. Anyone tried this out allready?
Great concept. But I miss one thing. There are no stoppers, like on the Lagun. I'm afraid the table moves or you have to dismantle it before every ride.
Actually if we had deeper screws, they’d probably go through the top of the table. We also put 4 screws in once it was complete, which is overkill but that table isn’t going anywhere.
@@EricandSarah sorry to be so blunt but I think I speak for most people when they’re looking for information on how to do something on You Tube whether it be how to build a fold out, swing out table in your camper van or how to do a plumbing repair job or whatever, we are looking for information,.

Im stealing this idea😎
your table is amazing. we are in uk Scotland
Great idea, you just saved me some money! Thanks
Hope it works for you!

Great table...does it fold down for storage or do you take the tabletop off?
@@LibertySerenity we just take the top off :)
Great job. I like the idea of white pvc pipe
Thanks! Glad you liked it ☺️
What an awesome build! How do you stop the connection points of the metal pipe from unscrewing, so your table top doesn't tilt and has things falling off? Did you weld them together?
Great project. Was going to buy a Lagoon table but now I'm stealing this idea for our camper!
Awesome! Let us know how it turns out 😊
I'm borrowing your idea
Pipes can be used for so many projects, great idea!
Very true!
😀 beautiful simplicity!!! I'm going to do this in my minivan.
Great video. Thanks. I'm trying to rework a diy lagoon and now I know how to get er done.
Get er done bud! Glad this helped 🙂
Really coming along guys brilliant idea with the table can’t wait to see your adventures in the van 😊❤️
Thanks guys!! Adventures coming very soon!!
Great job‼️
Nice idea!!
I’m going to be using the similar idea for our conversion trailer.
The video of how you built your combination work and dinner table was absolutely interesting. Your Canadian ingenuity won the day! I cannot wait until you take us on the road through Canada!
Thanks!! We’re quite happy with the result 😄 And cannot wait to show off Canada VERY SOON!
Looks awesome! Thanks😊
Glad you like it!
Nice DIY! I want to do this for my recliner to have a laptop handy, but easy to swing out of the way.
Just needs one more joint tonfold flat against the wall. Why not go the one extra step aftercall that?
Great idea 😊 But how??

@@sarahmp6706 I haven't yet. I will post it when I do
guys! Thank you sooo much for sharing this idea! It's amazing! :) All the best! :)
Great job now you got me thinking of making one for my ford e250, I just put a swivel seat in so I would love to try this.
Right on! So nice to have a swivel seat too
Good job, that turned out great.
Like the wood table top.
Thank you!! 😊
Great design on the table. Great video series on projects like this. Keep on keepin on.
Thanks Brian! 😄
Thanks for the tutorial I will definitely do a smaller version for my tiny van ❤🌹👋🏽
Did you always leave it out or did you break it down and store it?
We break it down! I responded how on your other comment 😄

Can you make a living working online while travelling!? I hope you can!!
Have a good Sunday!!
This is so great! Amazon really only has one swivel table and it's $100+ -- I'm going to attempt this tomorrow!
Very nice job, that looks great and is super functional. Safe travels.
Thank you! So far it’s been working great :)
Thanks ! Awesome idea
Awesome idea❤ Eric i want to make this for my sofa side and use for my laptop .......how can the plastic pipe remain stable and fix ???
The table looks awesome!!! 🤩👏🏼✨
Thank you!! So happy with how it turned out
Dont need it for a rv but i wanted a quick diy swivel keyboard table for my garage workbench. Thanks.

Thank you for the inspiration! Just one question - in my bulli it would be in the way some times - is it possible to put it off an on?

Nice design. How about using EMT conduit (metal pipe) instead of black pipe? It is lighter than black pipe and still maintains the needed strength.
Great idea! Would definitely consider doing that next time. Thanks for the input
Just bought the stuff to make one , identical stuff by the looks of it, Home Depot in Vancouver
Oh awesome! Let us know how it turns out 😄
Hey! Just wanted to ask the measurements of your table? It looks like an ideal size and I can't seem to get the size right for my van. Thank you guys!
Thanks for a great tutorial! I followed this exactly and discovered that the inside diameter of PVC pipe differs. I have 3/4 in steel pipe and 1-in PVC and it will not fit in it :-( back to the store again😂
I might do that in my camper if the cabinets are strong enough. How much weight does yours hold? Could it hold a microwave?
Do you ever have any issues of the table being in your way when getting in and out of the side doors?
Great Luna table! Q? Can the table fold down out of the way?
It does fold down but takes under a minute to twist of the table and the horizontal steel pipe and those go under/behind our couch!
❤loved tank’s
One thing that you can do to lower costs is use emt 3/4in conduit, not to mention it's far lighter, and you can still use those iron fittings or use Maker Pipe custom fittings... However really great video!
Great suggestion!
Not near as sturdy as black pipe. For something you're gonna have meals and laptops on there worth over 1G easy...better to have sturdy

Cool !
Am i doing something wrong? ¾” steel pipe at Home Depot doesn’t fit into their 1” pvc. alternatively, ½” doesn’t fit into ¾ pvc. Any insights on that?
Was the 1/2" too loose in the 1" pvc? Seems weird. Unless they don't have them marked correctly
@@EricandSarah yah the half once is pretty loose. Looking for something snug but loose enough to spin.
Doesnt this table get in the way though. For getting around? Can you remove it?

i love it
Brooke is adorable!
Isn’t she?! We wish she was ours 🥰
@@EricandSarah No matter how much she begs you, don't let her drive the van.
🎉ok but what about hight adjustable
Sadly no option for that but it works for us!
3/4 pipe is too tight of a fit inside 1” pvc at my hardware store. What am I doing wrong?
Strange. Does 1/2” fit? I just sort of walked around until I found a good fit. But 3/4 should fit snug, so I don’t know.
how can the table top rotate against the flange?
The flange is able to swivel on the top connector :)
How does it swivel on the phlange?
It just swivels smoothly on the threads of the phalange and the connector. If you place it right, it stays firm in place.
Great concept. But I miss one thing. There are no stoppers, like on the Lagun. I'm afraid the table moves or you have to dismantle it before every ride.
That’s an excellent idea! You could very easily install that alongside the base. Perhaps a hook of some sort
Cool
Need deeper screws if you don't table will dismount
Actually if we had deeper screws, they’d probably go through the top of the table. We also put 4 screws in once it was complete, which is overkill but that table isn’t going anywhere.
Scucum!
...or buy a folding camping table and use it inside and outside.
