Car Camping: Simple SUV Car Camp Table!

I created this quick and easy and very simple slide-out tailgate table for my Jeep camper conversion but you can create this to use in your SUV even if you're not creating a camper.

Since I was trying to fit this into a storage bay underneath a platform bed in my camper my measurements were 34 by 19 inches. If you're not going to have a platform or storage bed in the back of your SUV you can make your table as long or as wide as you need.

Materials you will need:
3/4-in plywood (I used maple)
Construction adhesive
2-in soft drilling wood screws
2-in by 24-in black ABS piping
1.5-in x 24-in black ABS piping
2-in black ABS pipe cover
3-in locking wire pin
ABS primer and glue
Painters tape
optional: sealer for the wood. I will probably use a polycrylic water base sealer.

Since I was using scrap plywood from my build of the camper it didn't cost me really anything for the wood or screws and glue.

Total cost for the build was approximately $15 for the ABS piping and cover, locking wire pin, glue for the ABS

Tools used included: skill saw or table saw, drill press, a drill, 1/2" drill bit and 1.5 in hole bit.
