Lopsided table

[cavaughan]

Just got a 21NE, assembled the swivel table mount and the table is slightly angled down away from the post. Maybe it's just the fact that the weight of the table top is held by a pole at one end? Or is there a fix anyone's done?
Thanks.

When you say swivel table mount do you mean the Lagune Table Mount? My Springfield table mount can rotate (swivel) too.

I actually made a smaller table to replace the large table that came with my Laguna table. I shimmed the low end of the table using 2 pieces of plywood (3/4" x 2" x 11" and 1/2" x 2'" x 11") and used Kreig gig screws 2 x 1 1/4" and 2 x1" as well as the stock ones that are about 3/4" long on the table mount That way all of the screws will have the same square drive that won't strip out. Drill small ~ 1/4" holes in the plywood shims so the screws don't do anything until it gets to the original table top. My table is now level.

I’ve found that if you tighten the arm down too much to the post, it will sag. Less seems to be more in this case. Yours being new, it might have been installed wrong.

It is the Lagune Table.

Today, I got underneath the table to figure what was up and now it's clear. The bar holder for the lagun bar is not straight! In fact you can see based on the fuse box next to it that it's not straight. I even got out a level to make sure, and it's off about the same amount as the table top. That's just sloppy on the part of Escape. Now I'll have to redrill everything but enough off the original holes so as to have good support.
