Thanks for that Dimmaz - I love it when people find elegant solutions like that!
Out of curiosity: I assume the trunnions are proper ones (quadrants, well below the top), but I'm curious as to how you're going to fix the insert plate...
Also, it might be worth storing the original table somewhere flat, and, if we have a hot summer, outside where it can warm up, and checking it occasionally, in case it recovers. I also think the problem might be from extension tables (if they were heavy cast ones). It can't have been like that ex-factory, so something caused it over time. What's the original like underneath - are the webs minimal, or was it quite well reinforced across the centre?
