    I love it
    I took your post yesterday to heart. Saturday was a yard sale day, and I had found an over the door, fold up ironing board for 2 bucks, BTW, the ironing board is a good foot shorter than a conventional board. Where my machine is positioned, I knew I couldn't use the ironing board the way it was meant, so after some brainstorming, I remembered the 2 rolling, wooden carts with drawers that I had originally purchased to fit under my LA to hold thread, etc. Unfortunately once I had them put together, they ended up being too tall to fit underneath...just my luck, so there they sat. I dismantled the ironing board from the frame and took the 2 rolling carts and placed them back to back and screwed the ironing board to the tops. I covered the ironing board with Insulbrite and placed the original cover over top of that. There is about half an inch of air space between the bottom of the ironing board and the tops of the carts, to eliminate any warpage (is that even a word?) Now, I can use the frame that I removed, as a support for something in the garden, since it's powder coated and shouldn't rust...notice I said shouldn't...LOL. I love to repurpose! Thanks for sharing your cool idea!!!

    Neat idea---though I keep the ironing board three rooms away so I have to get up and stretch! Still I think I will make one for some of the iron as I go blocks!

    That is cool, in fact the retreat committee of my Guild made 23 of them as a gift for our ladies at the retreat.
