My cutting table on bed risers

I use the extenders with a 6" folding table I got on sale at Target; with the longer legs it fits perfectly over the top of my guest room double bed, so I now have an actual cutting area, 37" high, with a handy temporary set-stuff place underneath, on the bed. My back SO appreciates the higher surface.
Table is also known as the kitty play area, as two head in there as soon as I turn the light on--they think I set this up just for their pleasure!
Got the PVC cut for free at Home Depot when I bought it; one 10' pipe length makes 8 legs, cost under $5, plus $3.50 for four end caps.
