solution to the small size of the dinette table and fitting in four adults. So we like our dinette when we first saw it but quickly realized trying to squeeze four adults around it left very little room. So the solution I came up with was to install a 12" drop leaf attached to the table. Pictures show the parts, purchased bracket from Amazon. The second issue now with a longer table the outside chair now tips since two of the legs are off the edge of the slide out flooring. Solution was to add and attach a six foot long four inch wide strip of wood about 5/8" thick to the edge of the slide out floor (used a piece of molding with tapered edge to prevent stubbed toes added a thin piece of plywood underneath to obtain correct thickness) used duck tape to attach to slide-out floor. Now all chairs level and plenty of room to meals and card games.

Very nice job and the trim board shim is a great idea. Thanks for posting.

X3 Kip Powrrs - job well done all the way around ! Over the years, a number of folks have added a table leaf but I do not recall anyone addressing the floor slope....very nice !

What color stain did you use to match the table? We currently have a Imagine 2970RL and I am planning on replacing the dining table with a long narrow table as we don't need the additional room, and I am trying to match the color of the table as close to the existing chairs as possible.
Thanks in advance.

civilengineer2189 Welcome to the Family and the forum!
Kip Powrrs Great job!
I'm not as worried since we don't have a dinette.
