We just got a new one at work and it is too low! Not good for my back!!! The mgrs keep telling me there is nothing they can do to raise it up and still keep it safe.
I say there is and so does others that I've talked to. We sell bed risers that go under the legs of beds - why can't they use that? If it's safe to sleep on I'm sure it's safe for cutting fabric on.
Also our new table has the marking yard stick insert about 5 inches from the edge. The former one was only a 1 1/2 inches from the edge.
Between the two by the end of a shift my back is in a lot of pain and it has been out of alignment for 3 weeks now as it is.
Anyway - how tall is your table?
Are the legs of your table bent? I've seen quilters use pcs. of PVC pipe to raise their tables. Works only if the legs have a bend in them though.
