id go old school and just use a callable:

def log_table(name, metadata):
   return Table(name, metadata,
     Column('log_id', Integer, primary_key=True),
     Column(...)
   )

the Table object is unique per name, so if you call Table twice for the
same name/metadata combination, you get the same instance.  so its safe to
substitute the log_table() function freely.
