Good afternoon
I'm looking for ideas for an external side mounted table or shelf. Preferably something easy to clip on or slot in.
Most of you are much smarter than me, so I figured I'd ask the question.
All help appreciated

I 'saved' a piece of 11-ply cabinet grade 3/4" birch plywood (approx 17"x22", from the TD build & cut the sliding table support in half (so I'd have enough for 2 small tables), & after cutting & varnishing the table top I fastened the 'male' table support to the end of the table, & the 2 mating 'female' pieces to the outside of each side of our TD galley. I devised a leg support from aluminum EMT, hinged one end to the underside of the table, flattened the other end, drilled a 3/8" hole in it at the appropriate spot, placed the table on the outside bracket, leveled the table, & drilled a 3/8" hole in the trim/overhang at bottom of my TD. I use a 3/8" bolt through the 'leg' of the table to hold it level & in place for use. I've placed a 7-gallon water jug (full) on the table while camping but it usually carries a lighter load. Have never built a second 'table for the other side since on our first 'gathering' in 2006 I found a folding, permanently mounted table that folds & stores just inside the galley hatch. I built & installed that & so far we haven't found an overpowering need for a second table...

Folding table in storage mode; we seldom use the side table but it's kept behind the lower galley doors in case of need.
