the cradle idea is neat!

At least with that "upcycle", it looks like they left all the parts so you and "original purpose" it back if you wanted to.

Compared to some of the modern plastic ones out there, they probably seem that way.

I have a 3/4 size 15 clone.

A bizarre cross between a sewing machine cabinet and a drafting table.

Right! I guess it's not off topic.

I'd buy that in a heart beat - but I'm a sucker for a neat sewing cabinet!

Where does the machine go when it isn't set up for sewing?

It's an odd one. Looks like it was built that way though.
I've never seen anything like it but then I've only been doing this a little over a year.

There's a door on the left side of the cabinet that is tall like the narrow end of a sewing machine. I thought the machine went in there and the little drawers were for the usual stuff that lands in treadle style cabinet drawers. There was another secretive sewing table on our craigslist that was a pretend sideboard and it had the same tall door on one side and three small drawers on the other. That one had a huge drop leaf pretending to be the side of the sideboard. But that was small at least. This thing is saving no space at all.
