I only use my wooden sleeves when making pants legs, cuffs, or sleeves.

My last mini board broke after umpteen years and I never replaced it. Last week DH brought home this gem left behind by a tenant. I used it today and knew right away I will have to replace the batting with heavier and sew a new top. Otherwise it is a great little table. Legs bend down to store.

I've got one, but haven't used it since I quit making clothes.

I use mine a lot. Have been working on small projects and it takes up little space on my work table. Also like it for pressing binding strips as well as garment ironing.

I have one of them but have never used it. I think if you were making miniature quilts that it would be quite handy, it would be able to sit on your desk/table and you wouldn't even have to get up to press.

I use the sleeve hams instead. They are great for ironing seams open because the material naturally opens without any puckering or such. Mine is under my cutting table or next to the ironing board.
