He was making it to lift, but I wanted a screw in so it wouldn't move. Board is 3/8 inch thick, works great, the 44" inch material fits across the board.

That's a perfect board, he did a great job.

Does it feel sturdy? I may be able to coerce someone into making me one.

Awesome! I love my big board although my ironing board is getting a bit wobbly so I probably will have to do something in the new house -
It looks like that one would be much sturdier!

Nicely done! I wish my husband were a bit - any - handy with tools...
