> Rear Table Fix

       Here's a much easier and faster fix.  Use a magnet !  3/4" or 1/2" 
diameter rare earth magnet with holding cup and washer, available from Lee 
Valley Tools, www.leevalley.com.  Place either the magnet and holding cup or 
the washer on the table edge directly opposite the pivot point and place the 
other piece on the wall and viola no more noisy, wobbling table.  The small 
rare earth magnets are so strong you will have a good pull to get the table 
away from the wall when you want.  I just did this in my Westy and it works 
like a charm.  If you do not want to order from Lee Valley or cannot find 
them locally.  I will have sets available for sale on my website, 
frankcondelli.com, soon.  $6 for the 3/4" set and $3.50 for the 1/2" set, CND 
of course !  Better yet, see me at one of the many camping events I attend 
and I always have the sets with me.  I used the 3/4" set but others have used 
the 1/2" set with success.  I just think bigger is better !
