Hello - our RW had a fixed table that did not swivel, nor could itbe removed. We decided we would like to have the option to remove the table and support as an option for more floor space for music equipment and the wife's area for painting. So I decided to tackle the option to remove the table and store it. I ended up removing the table from the support and made a 3 sided track out of 1/2 inch aluminum channel. I made the 4th aluminum track easy to remove with 2 knob screws. I mounted the aluminum channel pieces to 3/4 x 2 inch hardwood and glued and screwed the pieces on to the wood base plate on the table. So now the table will slide off the wall/floor mount. The table can be put on in either direction as well.
Next I removed the welded aluminum wall/floor mount. This requires removing ~16 screws on the wall and 6 on the floor. I also had to pull up a small piece of carpet that covers the base on the floor. Next I drilled out 6 holes in the aluminum mount on the wall side so 10/32 x 1 inch knob screws would fit. I also drilled out 4 holes in the aluminum mount floor end so 1 inch screws would fit. The next step was to enlarge the receiving holes in the wall and floor and then epoxy the flange nuts and hammer them into place. The last thing I did was screw down 2 strips of Velcro on the floor and riveted 2 Velcro strips on the carpet flap so it can easily be pulled up and tacked back down when removing or replacing the aluminum wall/floor mount. It was a bit of work, but it turned out real nice. Remove 6 knobs screws from the wall, lift up the carpet flap and use a coin to back out 4 screws in the floor and your table post is removed.
