I found that my table, one similar to yours, was the problem when I was cutting fabric out. I purchased a banquet table that is wood with a laminate top. It works great and no bow, bends, or tears anymore.

So glad you discovered that it was the table. These ladies on here have so much experience and good ideas.

Could it be a reaction between the plastic rulers and all of the paint on the pegboard?

I see that you are using a plastic table. Check to see if the table is the problem. Just a thought.

My guess is that you had the sun on them for part of the day - that would do it.
Just read the solution - a new table is easily fixed - glad it is solved.

Your room is just lovely....all that natural light!!! I think too that sun/heat are the culprits in your warped ruler problem....

Just read back and I see you have the problem fixed!! Glad you now know the answer
