You can buy a iron pad that is pretty big and square at Joanne's fabric. its around 20.00 but they always have 40 percent off coupons.

Since I live in Australia it would be costly for me to send for one of them.

Thanks for sharing, I wish to share with you another way its fairly simple too, find a hollow core door cover as you did on the one half the other half put your cutting board you know the green whatchamacallet. attatch to other half. when not cutting on it its a good sewing platform. I did attatch mine to an old treddle sewing machine legs. At one end sew together a cloth bag to put those scraps and threads in attach with cuphooks.

:thumbup: ..... I made one just like this a few years ago, only I made mine smaller and with thicker plywood, so I could take it to quilt guild nights and retreats.... beats hauling the big cumbersome ironing board
