Need some input on adding Small to table

Long story short I started to build a table for my large egg before I ever thought about getting a second egg. Life got in the way and never finished it. I'm now looking to finish it, but want to add my small egg to the table. I have plenty of room in the table to add it. My thought is to take the nest the small is currently sitting it and taking the wheels off. I would then bolt the nest to the table. This would allow the egg to be lifted up high enough to be roughly the same height as the large and at the same time creating an air gap. Any one see a problem with this? Here is a picture of the table. I have since put a first layer of epoxy and cut the hole for the large.

I think your plan is solid. I saw another member post a similar solution in the past where they chopped down the rolling nest to fit.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas

Couldn't you cut a hole in table top and put a taller platform under the small egg to bring it up to same level in table?

Sounds like a plan to me , please post when completed . I'm debating on doing exactly the same thing . Still unsure if I like two eggs in one table better than eggs on nests and a stand alone table in between

Like I said above, your plan will work. Just a shame to cut down a nest that you might enjoy using in the future if you want to pull your small and take it to a friends/family to use.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas

I like the drawer option, Mitch better use of space ^^ I did something similar with my mini

Thanks for the input. I will take that into consideration. Put the nest in and looks like the felt line will set about 5 inches above the large one. Will look a bit funny.Large and Small BGECentral, IL

I have a table nest for the large. It will be sitting on a slab of granite. The granite sits on the bottom braces so it will be open so it doesn't scortch any wood. The wheels come off easily from the small nest. I was simply just trying to repurpose it.Large and Small BGECentral, IL

i actually had the opposite situation. I had a large and a small in separate tables. I then added another large. I beafed up the bottom and top support of the table that held my small and added the large to it. The platform the small sits on has an open space with the front panel that has magnetic clips to hold it in place.
