Extra Long Lagun Table

Basil48192

Bought some scrap maple and walnut pieces from a local cabinet maker and made a new top for my Lagun table.
It's actually 36" long (8" longer than the original). 
I'm hoping the extra length and weight on the bracket don't present any problems.  Please let me know if anyone has any input.  I can always cut it down if I have to.  If necessary, I can cut the extra length off and attach it as a drop leaf.  I'm hoping the extra length will be handy as extra prep surface for cooking.

Nice craftmenship Basil48192. I have a 2018 with the older table and could be wrong but always felt the new Laguna table was way too small.

Thanks! @AndreO.  I was pretty happy with how it turned out (bought a new planer so needed a project to try it out).  At 36" long it just misses the corner of the bathroom wall and will just turn 90 degrees and touch the side cushions.  I think I'm going to like the extra surface area.

I did 34in by 24in. Having a CS, we use the table mostly outside. The mount is off center allowing the table to reach to the kitchen for additional prep space.
 Looks very nice.

@Basil48192, this is from the Lagun USA website:
TMP= Table Mounting Plate

What size tabletop is recommended for Lagun?

• Tabletops are NOT INCLUDED with systems.
• System with Standard TMP can support up to 50 lbs & a tabletop up to 30″ x 40″.
  • • This includes the weight of the tabletop plus anything placed on it.

• This includes the weight of the tabletop plus anything placed on it.

Thanks everyone for the input!  My table top weighs about 22 lbs., so as long as we keep our meals reasonable, we should be fine!
Thanks again.
