Laptop table?
Have seen this twice now...it's called Lap App. Cost $60. Anyone have one? Paperpieces.com has one and also Amazon. I think I'll wait for a coupon, or sale, but I think for doing handwork this might be a help.

When I saw your heading, I thought it would be one of those lap desks with beanbag type fill in the underside to conform to the shape of your legs, very handy for beading. Those I have seen in thrift stores, but this new one reminds me of a lap quilting hoop I have seen Jean Brown use. This is a neat gadget, probably developed by a thoughtful husband who's crafty wife had neck pain.

Actually, I have several of the beanbag type lap desks. This one looks a bit more streamlined, adjustable and I saw one pic that shows it with an ironing fabric ( silver) too.....could be used when traveling...? Don't have handy dh (passed), or handy sons-in-law will have to wait and see........

I have one of these. Didn't know that was what it was called though. I bought it at an estate sale for $12. I like how it adjusts to fit. The cover is removable and there is a non slip tracing surface. It came with an ironing cover pad too . It's great to take to a sew day to do EEP when I don't want to take a machine for sewing.

You have no idea what contortionist images come to my mind. I understand the lap top table, but, am getting hung up on the foot. Could you explain more about your gadget?
