My new ironing table
1 Attachment(s)
Saw this on another quilters facebook posting. Hardwood workbench from Harbor Freight topped w/a canvas covered board for ironing surface. I am so much happier with this than my old ironing board. :)

Wonderful and more stable than a regular ironingboard.
|
Really nice!
|
That is a wonderful use. Wish I had the room, those drawers would be wonderful to have right there.
|
Wow, nice. And so big to iron whole quilt tops and backings on!

OH! I like this, wish I had room for it.
|
Great idea!
|
It's handsome, sturdy, and has good storage. Great find!
|
Nicely done and with additional storage too.
|
Looking good! That is a nice work bench and it would work for a buffet table as well.
|
You are brilliant. It's a beautiful, sturdy and useful table. And at 33 inches high it should work very well for cutting.
|
Great ironing station!
|
Looks great, will work wonderful I am sure. Second thought you could take ironing board off top and use for cutting with a cutting mat. Then could iron or cut or measure. I like your thinking.
Going back through posted items I see someone else already had the idea. |
Sweet, needs more room then I have.
|
That's wonderful! Does it have drawers too? I want one!! I just looked up Harbor Freight and there is one in the next city. Does it come already assembled?
|
This might make a really nice cutting table as well!
|
looks beautiful auntjo... should give you a sturdy ironing platform.
|
If my sewing room could have accommodated it, I'd have one too. Just not enough wall space with 3 machines. As it is, Steve made me a quilters ironing board (25 x 65) for Christmas. Love it.
|
Nice, looks good and sturdy compared to my ironing board.
|
wow!!! really nice! and good thinking on using a workbench.
|
I like it! I might have to check that out; we recently have a Harbor Freight in my "shopping" town and have been itching to get in there to look around. Now I have a reason:-)
|
Thanks for this idea. I have a Harbor Freight near by. I will have to look into it.

my new ironing board
we got a new harbor freight catalog today (1/27). the catalog said postmaster should deliver between 1/30 and 2/1, so i assume the sale starts 2/1? this table is advertised for $159.99. should you have a h.f. 20% coupon, that is even better. hope this helps for anyone who is interested in purchasing a workbench/ironing table.
|
wow, what a beauty she is! I'm jealous!
|
Wish I had room for it, have looked at them for many uses. But no place to put it so I will just look and dream.
|
Awesome, love it !!
|
I am so glad to see a picture of this table from Harbor Freight. I've been thinking about doing the exact same thing but just wasn't sure - and the table is usually so reasonable to purchase. I have had a big board for some time but just didn't want to use an ironing board. Thank you so much for your post.

You're in business now!! Congratulations!
|
Saw this yesterday and was headed to town so got one and it is being put up right now. I have a big board ironing board on top of my ironing table so just have to move it over. Thanks, had never seen it assembled at the store. For the gal who asked, you put it together yourself (instructions included). We are adding a stabilizer bar on the back.
|
Super ironing table.
|
How great! I need to look into this. I'm always afraid one of my dogs will knock over the ironing board and send a hot iron crashing to the floor. This bench is just what I need. Thanks for sharing.
|
That's a great looking set up!

That is a super idea, but I don't really have the space. I have a big board that sits on top of my regular ironing board. I can take it off when needed.

Does this table come fully assembled? I looked online, and I saw these four spikes sticking up, plus the vice on the side. Did you have to saw those down? ([email protected])
|
Great idea -- thanks.
Just checked -- the table is 60" long and I don't have that much room. Sigh. |
Great ironing board....
|
muy bien hecho , ideal

I think my husband will fall off his rocker if I ask to stop at Harbor Freight on the way out of town.....
Might be worth it just to see the look on his face. LOL |
