I would love to see a pic of your pegboard turntable. That is such a clever idea and I know my DH would get a kick out of making it. Thanks for the idea!

Had the guys at the lumber place slice it in 3 vertical pieces which I lashed together at the corners to make a triangle shaped tower. Then I made a small triangle of wood with casters to mount it to. Works great, only takes up 1foot of floor space and gives tons of storage. I would also install SMOOTH floor. I like the carpet because my feet stay warm, but I hate it for trying to keep clean and pins! If I could I would rip all of my carpet out and put some type of vinyl in. Then a throw rug or two if need be...
