Wow! I am impressed! I just purchased an extension table and it was quite expensive.

Beautiful job. I should get into wood working. Only if I had the room.

You know what? I have this same kenmore machine chunked back under some stuff. Think I will get it out and see if it still sews. Your extension looks great. Maybe i can get one made.

p.s. i paid big money for one for my Janome, but because of the clean lines on this one, i did it myself for about $15 (not including the cost of power tools that i should have had anyway and will use for other projects).

I really like your extension table. I think I need one for my Janome New Home machine. Might have to go find some wood and see what I can come up with. Thanks for the great idea and pictures.
