Okay, I saw the Steady Betty but thought it was a little too expensive so I went to the hubby and asked "hey, if you took a piece of unfinished board left over from a home project and an extra handle for a cupboard that we didn't use can you make me one of these, kinda of?" Could he cut a piece of the board (4" by 7" by 1 1/2"), sandpaper the edges, and use two screws to put the handle on it? Sure, he said and I love my on "Steady Ricky" using it on my blocks. Press with the steam iron and then press the Steady Ricky and perfect flat seams especially on areas where a number of corners meet. Just a thought for everyone.
