Hi Rob,

I store the table top vertically behind the driver's seat.  To keep it from
flopping around, I secure it with the front table leg..  I fold a towel and
drape it over the table, then position the horizontal section of the table
leg over the top of the table.  Pushing down on the horizontal part of the
table leg, I tighten the knob.  This puts downward force on the table top
and keeps it in place.
Enjoy that van !
