I am so lucky! I love my job!

I work for an engineering company and we moved to new offices on Friday. My boss decided he did not want his large drafting table anymore since everything is done in AutoCADD now.

This table has two huge drawers and 2/3 of the top elevates! I can cut my fabrics without leaning over a flat table and getting an aching neck!

Also, the table top has guide wires and a sliding ruler at the bottom that can move up and down to cut along like my acrylic rulers. My large cutting mat doesn't even cover it!

He also gave me a bar height chair with it, and my sewing machine can sit on the 1/3 of the table that stays flat.

Woo Hoo!

That's freaking awesome! Now all you need is to attach a light over the side, and you're set!

I wish I could score something that awesome! :lol: :lol: :lol:

So pleased for you, it will make a big difference to you. I have worked at one of these desks before when I worked at a drawing office, a lovely piece of kit.
Love your quilt hanging on the wall too

Tisha.
