Solution

Ok, I figured this one out.

I realize there' s a getTable() method in the Model class.

  public function __construct()
 {
    $prefix = Config::get('database.connections.mysql.prefix');
    $this->setTable( $prefix.$this->table );
 }

That works, but isn´t the best way to do this. Just use Laravels function ;)

DB::getTablePrefix();
