    I used pvc pipe cut & placed on the legs of my folding table . no more hurting back. I like the risers also. may have to try them one of these days.

    For me the table is quite stable. Love it.

    For me also; not a wobble, even when the furkids jump on and off. No sliding around on my bare wood floor, either.

    Looks good to me! Now don't laugh, but I have been known to pull out four one-gallon paint cans and prop a table up on them when I need a bigger tall space. I imagine the quilt police would have a field day with my table on those days!!

    I have one also used for a grooming table and my mom made an ironing board out of it too. she used insilbright and muslin and cotton batting. bed raisers are the best.

    Smart move. I am going to try that as my table sits too low. Thanks for the idea.

    My friends husband cut PVC pipe and put them on the legs on her table. I think he got that idea from our LQS. Works great. It sure is nice to have a higher table to cut on isn't it? :D
