I looked around till I found someone selling an old desk..picked it up for around $35.00..it is just short of 5 foot long and works great as a sewing table, has 2 large drawers on the left side. Getting ready to cut the hole so I can drop my machine in and start sewing, have been using the desk ''as is'' so far. I do know if you use masking tape around the area you are going to cut and it will reduce ''splintering'' around the edges, once cut pull the tape off and smooth...
