Rotating and sliding table

As posted on a previous thread, we’re unhappy with our Lagun tables. Can anyone recommend a swiveling and sliding bracket that can be mounted to a table pillar/post?

I have 2018 Escape 21 with standard sliding table. not perfect, but works great for me. it's not fancy but utilitarian. caveats: remember to tighten it down before heading out, or it will bang side to side. also, it's not designed to lean on, put a lot of weight on one side, keep weight balanced or it will sag on the heavy side. my recommendation is go back to OEM table setup. cheers

They are or were made by Dicor but they aren't readily available, maybe you can find one if you do some searching.

Here's lots of reading for you.

What you might be looking for is a Springfield pedestal with the Dicor slide. This allows raising/lowering, sliding in all directions and spinning (space permitting). Just not sure how to get ahold of the Dicor slide these days. A forum member Steve did a bulk order of 30 back in the day for interested members. You'll have to do some research and it takes some modifications to implement. Another option might be the Nuova Mapa telescoping and sliding table system. After some sleuthing a forum member finally found a US vendor. Threads below.

I just looked back at a 2017 email to a rep at the Italian Mfg. of this Four-Way slider and the link he had to the company. Guess what pops up now!

That's Lippert EU, and they only sell directly to manufacturers , plus that column is fixed, not collapsible so you would lose the ability to convert the dinette to a bed.

Oh wait, found this in the PDF catalog...

Here’s an alternative, cheap, but doesn’t slide.

I also had some issues using the Lagun mount. I wanted more flexibility. I used the slides that Escape provided but extended their range. Depending on rotation/position, it moves the table front to back or side to side. I also made a shortened version of the Lagun aluminum horizontal piece because its length messed up the movement. I now can position the table pretty much anywhere.



Here is a link to my old post that documented the process.

Right & that pedestal is what Dicor referred to as the Cosmo; one could just buy the 4-way slider that connects to it separately.

Ok- Lippert did buy the Italian company that made these sliders:
