I have 2 lifetime tables, 2' x 4' & 2' x 5', then bought from Home Depot 2, 2'x4' pieces of foam insulation board 2" thick and 2 pieces 1" thick. My machine bed sits 3" from the table. Then from Walmart bought 2 yards of heavy vinyl. Then I put the 2x4 table in the back 2x5 table in the front, laid out foam board, used a bic marker to draw around my machine and cut the foam boards with a knife. laid vinyl over the top, cut out for machine bed, taped it down with duck tape. The cost, not including the tables was around $30. It isn't the prettiest but it is a dream to quilt on. Your quilts slide very easy on the vinyl, in fact I now reccomment using this vinyl instead of buying the Super Slides if the bed of your machine doesn't allow the fabric to move smoothly. Oh, one more thing, I used 2 different sized tables because I wanted the extra room to the right of my machine to hold pins, scissors ect. Very easy!! The really nice thing is that you can take a part and store when not in use.

Good luck with your build, if you have any questions pm me.

Hugs, Gail
