Sounds like a decent thing to get.  That reminds me... listee Chris
Turner stopped by today and critiqued my handywork with the breadloaf
front table.  I had a somewhat kludgy solution for the table bracket
that goes into the arm.

We went to Sears and got a steel 1" floor flange (water pipe) and a
double taper-threaded pipe fitting (about 2-1/2" long.  The flange
has 4 screw holes that hold the table securely with #12 sunken head
3/4" wood screws.  thread the pipe fitting into the flange and a
piece of duct tape covers the threads and now it plunks right into
the table arm.

After a day trip this past weekend, I decided I can live with the
horizontal length of the 'loaf arm, but I might hack a few inches off
the verticality.

I'll take some digipics and put them on my website when I get a
chance.

Now to look for a good deal on one of those 12V power sucker cooler
chests...  :-)
