Thread #34209
Does anyone know where I can get a custom VIP table made? I have a cube. There was this Xb guy that made one but I don't think he does anymore
look up either vipdout or daviddeezign on instagram or fb
I just made mine, Took about 2 hrs for cutting and design, 3 hrs to sand and make smooth, 3 days for clear coat to dry and..... [URL]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8381/8510601607_a2716145da_c.jpg[/URL] I use cardboard as a rough to get the design and shape, transfered it to MDF for fine tuning, then over to Oak Wood. This has 1 heavy coat of Light Cherry Red stain ($7.99) and 1 coat of Self Leveling Epoxy resin ($24.99). Let it sit for 3 days to fully cure and done. If you have the basic wood working skills you can pull it off or send me a template and we can reproduce it. I choose not to go with the chrome trim on this one, and plan to make some changes to it for the next one I build. (it has a few minor flaws, bur not noticeable unless pointed out.)

3 L brackets bent into a Z and slightly longer screws to go into the stock mounting location of the glove box. I plan to add the side supports for my next table. but this one holds very sturdy and has a very slight sag when heavy stuff is on it. So far i have placed 1 full bottle of Stella, Monster Energy, Glass Cup, and 2 small shot glasses without a problem.
would you ever consider of making/selling for a fellow vip enthusiast?
a guy over at clublexus made some for his LS400. he said he made a few in the past but i'm not sure if it was for friends or as a side gig for others. thread: [URL]http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls400/679207-vip-front-table-tray.html[/URL] [URL="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v165/DJSurfer616/20130218_115437_zps97b91750.jpg"][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v165/DJSurfer616/20130218_115437_zps97b91750.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v165/DJSurfer616/20130222_193810_zps698e50d4.jpg"][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v165/DJSurfer616/20130222_193810_zps698e50d4.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v165/DJSurfer616/20130312_100419_zps9bb1eb12.jpg"][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v165/DJSurfer616/20130312_100419_zps9bb1eb12.jpg[/IMG][/URL] rear table too!
