New galley table
Posted: Sat May 08, 2010 8:55 am
I just finished a new table for the galley. I can't claim to have made the inlay, it came pre-made at Rockler. I routered out some walnut to set it in. The table itself is Walnut, the fiddles are African Mahogany. Initially wanted to simply oil it since it looked so nice with just a wipe of mineral spirits but gave in to the cleaning ease of varnish. I used marine varnish, but I might try to find an oil based interior varnish with more of a mat finish for one last coat.
Alberg's have a neat setup for the table. The table has a cast bracket on the bottom that fits onto the top of a welded tube. The tube is "z" shaped and slides into a socket in the cabin bunk. When setup, the table can sit in the middle of the cabin, or swing around to sit directly above the bunk for more of a chart table that's out of the way.
