Westfalia Sink Cover/Table

[Middleton]

Has anybody made one of these? £100 seems a bit pricey and I was wondering if anybody had the dimensions for it?

I'm also missing the support. If anyone could direct me to some photos, it looks like I'll have to make one of those too! My Westfalia is a 1972 - did they have a different support from the triangle one?

Thanks!

Ours was missing - I replaced it with a chopping board of a similar size, that's pretty much what it is anyway, couple of hinges from a diy store, not original but works a treat!

We did have the support but I'm sure you could find something to work - £100 is a ridiculous price

If the support your after is a triangular shaped wire bracket I have one spare.

White Formica or melamine covered 18mm plywood with 3/4 inch arcade machine t-molding round the edges. Hinges are available on eBay cheap.

I use the molding all the time, here it is on my old puck when I rebuilt the kitchen

With regards to the support, early westys had the support, then in 71 the table rested on the backrest of the buddy seat. I would imagine that a 72 is the same.

About a third of the way down on the inside edge of the buddy seat backrest is a rest for the table to sit on.

Thanks for all this information guys! I'm glad I won't need a rest for the table as I have the higher chair to support it. I think I'll pop to Wickes and see if they can knock me one up. Does anyone know the width/length dimensions?

Also, I'm missing the little loop for the stool strap. I haven't got a stool, but I'd like to put the loop on because I don't like the holes - lol. Does anyone know whether these are available for sale anywhere?
