DIY Alu fold-up table
Eks besig om vir my n alu tafel te bou wat ek in die dak van my canopy will vas trek. Ek gaan ook dat die een kant oopmaak vir die was bakkies, ek soek net n paar ideas vir die poote van die tafel, hy moed lekker stewig staan.
Ek gebruik nou die blou plastik was bakkies, maar ek wil kyk om pvc sakkies te maak soos die wat jy kan koop wat opvou, ek kort ook hulp met dit, hoe sal ek werk met die pvc? kan jy dit werk met a masjien, of "heatseal"?
Hier onder is n pic van een van die PVC was bakkies, die idea agter dit is dat die tafel lekker klein opvou.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Gomad se tafel werk die beste, pote vou heeltemal in (30mm dik) en skop stewig met gas shocks uit, vra vir ciske om n prenkie op te sit. Hy bou slides vir hulle dan pas hulle bo in die dak.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
If it isnt too late why not incorporate some collapbsible wash bowl into the table so you dont need to take them out when you put it away. They are also going to take up far less space!

Any Idea of what the dimensions is? Or were to buy? if it is the same dimensions as the ones I have it will work, if not Ill make a plan with a pvc one, thats the idea behind it, so that it folds up with the table.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
This is the idea, this will make it sturdy but double the fold up thickness.

Ek weet sommige van die ouens gebruik dieselfde meganisme as die ouens wat alu ventsers insit.
Die is die naaste foto wat ek kon kry, en hulle vou die bene lekker plat op.

Unfortunately those sash hinges cannot lock open ... they are friction only.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Hi,
I saw this table once, wanted to build one but the time!! I bought 2 bowles like the one in the first picture, reinforced the corners with some PVC (? the groundsheet stuff) which I pasted on the corners with some dowl pins in there, now it is sturdy, and it folds flat. Without the pins it collapses and the water spills.
Cheers,
C

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Now that is what my father did, but the one I'm building, because of the extra frame around the wash basin it will not work.cprinsloo wrote:Hi,

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Here's my take on ye 'olde table. Idea was to get away without any welding.
Still a bit wobbly due to some play on the hinge bolts, but hope to sort that with braces.
Modify T-braces like so: Leg cut-outs done to get an angle when open, no particaular angle, it was TLAR'd

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Thinking of strenghtening the legs where the cut-outs were made with flat bar braces on the sides, but the tubing walls are quite sturdy
Seems the Plastic braces reams a bit when drilled; should have tried a 5.5mm bit for a tighter fit with 6mm bolts

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Thanks Hy pas net mooi op die onderste raam van die canvas canopy sodat dit sommer as rak dien vir die opvou matras.
Het nog my bedenkinge oor my skarniere...sal sien na die braces in is.

2 Braces made & fitted to each side top & bottom; works like a charm

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
BLINK PLAN van die JAAR!
I agree, support those legs and it will be much better. Either pop rivet a alu flatbar on it or put another sqr tubing inside with two Connect It braces.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Stefan, ek het daardie tafel van jou bekyk, want ek soek ook so 'n platte. Ek het net gewonder of hy (soos hy op jou eerste foto staan) jou nie op 'n kol gaan verneuk nie, wanneer hy dalk 'n stoot of stamp van die kopkant af kry en eenkant se pote dan gaan invou nie.
Of het jy daar 'n meganisme wat dit inplek hou wat ek dalk mis gekyk het?

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Willem i mens kan altyd soos die pic onder wys in blou, uit alu flatbar op die poot en op die tafel frame hak sodat die poot lekker stewig is, ek dink is wat ek gaan doen sodat wanneer die poot oop is kan hy nie sommer toe vou nie.

@ Doom: Jy's heeltemal reg; moet nog 'n meganisme aan die pote sit vir die kop stampe (die Chambelain's het nie gehad wat ek soos in Wayne se pic soek nie, so ek moet 'n stel opspoor). Die pic was geneem net na die skarniere ge-rivet en die raam gemaak staan is om te kyk na die hoogte & hoek vd pote en net 'n algemene gevoel te kry of die tafel 'reg' is voor ek aangaan.

Omtrent so 760mm, wou 'n lekker medium hê tussen sit & staan by die tafel.
Pote is 770mm lank gesny met die gat vir die bout 12mm van die punt af. Rondings op pote 12mm radius gesny.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
So gepraat van boere en hul planne....
Na 'n gesoekery by al wat hardeware winkel is Noord van die Magalies Vrydag, pluk ek toe mos my humeur terug vierde rat toe en mik vir die rooi..
Met al wat aluminium verskaffer is toe op Saterdae, is dit weer Chamberlain's toe vir 'n stukkie flat bar, kry toe 19x3 alu en...hulle het toe so wraggies alu table edging..koop toe sommer 2 lengtes van dit ook teen R35 elk.
Die plan draai toe so uit:
250mm stukke flat bar gebuig en gepas om middelpunt te kry:
Middelpunt geboor en tydelik vas geskroef:
Finale produk: Modifikasie om lock pin te akkomodeer:

finale "stay" weergawe aan tafel raam ge-rivet (boonste gat is 0.5mm groter as die onderste een sodat hy lekker kan skarnier)
Die agter kant; die sink bout skroef in die alu in, die gat is draad in gesny en thread lock gegee.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Goed so hier is myne
ek het die pote uit die dik 3mm alu square tubing gemaak so dis bitjie swaarder, en die brackets vir die pote is 2mm stainless steel, Hy vou bitjie dikker op om rede die raam vir die wasbakkies in die pad is, maar doen die ding.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Nice Wayne Ek hou van jou brackets en wasbakke.
Die T-braces wat ek gebruik het is ook hol, maar dis van HDPE gemaak wat redelik taai is, inteendeel, ek gebruik dit vir engine mounts op my model vliegtuie ook. Ek wou dit graag probeer en het my bedenkinge gehad aan die begin, maar ek moet jou sê ek dink daai braces is stewig genoeg vir die die doel. Dis nie asof ek wil bees slag op die ding nie
So die tyd sal leer; as die braces breek dan weet ons ten minste

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Een vout wat ek ook het is dat ek T pieces gebruik het waar ek omkring het, dit maak die tafel so bitjie swak, ek moes eerder die brace piece gebruik het en nie die square tube gesny het nie.
Gelukkig kan ek dit vinng uit ruil

Stef as jy 'n brace / flat bar, hier in sit sal dit help Bietjie inni pad vir mense wat aan die kant sit....Stef wrote:Here's my take on ye 'olde table. Idea was to get away without any welding.
Still a bit wobbly due to some play on the hinge bolts, but hope to sort that with braces.
Modify T-braces like so: Leg cut-outs done to get an angle when open, no particaular angle, it was TLAR'd

Alternatiewelik kan jy so brace in sit (die geel weergawe) dan het jy meer been spasie

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Finally got the Alu plate, 1480 x 602 x 1.2mm @ R230 cutting & VAT included.
Added another tube down the centre to support the plate.
Stuck it down onto the frame with some "no more nails" & riveted the edging on.
Cleaned the top with SS brite s/steel cleaner to get rid of the oxides

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Rofweg so R762 - R60 in leftovers = R702 + elbow greaseOOOOMS wrote:Het jy al jou kostes bereken vir als ?
Maizey's - 12m alu tube (waarvan ek 3m oor het) + 3 pakke connect-it = R382
Chamberlain's - 2.5m flat bar (19mm x 3), 5m Alu table edging, 4.8mm rivits, 3.2mm rivets, 6mm bolts & nylocks, plastic caps = R150
Non Ferrous Metal Works - alu sheet cut to size (1480 x 602 x 1.2) = R230
Duurder uit gewerk as wat ek gedink het , maar dis dubbel die grootte as die Makro/OW tafels van R599 en heelwat stewiger en dit pas in die canopy se raam

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table
Tx! It was actually measured to fit the frame of the canvas canopy so that it can serve as a shelf for the mattress & sleeping bags and wouldn't need any special mounts/brackets..but definately a nice size. I'm well chuffed with itFamily_Dog wrote:Nice job, Stef! Seems to be very sturdy now and it is a nice size as well.

Re: DIY Alu fold-up table

Sq tubing is 2.5kg per 6m lengte, dus 3.75kg vir raam en pote, blad skat ek op 1.5 tot 2kgWillem01 wrote:Dit lyk nie sleg nie..mooi gedoen jy het nou vir ons mooi al die kostes uiteengesit...kan ons jou nou na die skaal toe stuur sodat ons kan sien wat weeg hy???
