I like your idea of a big table for placing portables in interchangeably. I haven’t bumped into one of those yet, but it sounds like a good idea. I hope you find one!

The photo is a bit small, but this is the table I'm hunting for. Someone about an hour from me had one, but I passed on it because of the drive combined with the fact that the insert was missing. But, I think it's a table that would really come in handy. I don't have a clue who the manufacturer was, but I don't think it was Singer.
