I had been using a plexiglass extension for my machine, but the heavier projects had a tendency to cause the extension to slide around and move.
I started looking for tables that the machine sat down in and created a flat working surface. But, boy are those things pricey.
I decided to try and built one myself. Went to Home Depot, bought 1 8ft 2x4, 2 8ft 1x6 and a 2ftx4ft piece of MDF (total cost $24.86). I used the lumber to build the frame of the table and the MDF for the top. I drew the foot print of my machine on the MDF and cut it to fit my machine with a jig saw.
The white strip you see along the edge is plastic tape. It makes the edge slicker and the fabric doesn't get hung up.
What difference it make working on larger projects, much easier to handle.
What do you think of my low budget table?
May have started something. I am now making another for one of my wife's friends.
