Done that. Used the plain old PSA backed velcro (3/4" X 1.5"). Works ok,
but does make a disconcerting ripping noise when you do finally pull out
the table.

Check the bottom  of the vertical portion of the arm (down inside the
cupboard) to make sure that it is properly located on its base.

I used beeswax rahter than loctite on the handscrewss to provide a bit
(small) of resistance to backing out.
