I am new and have a question.

I always stand when I cut, and I am very tall. I haven't found a comfortable height table to cut at yet, I use the kitchen counter and cut just a little at a time. I find if I change tasks frequently, my back doesn't hurt so much when I'm done.

Bed risers work great! At a local store named Ollies they have a table that folds up and is able to be adjusted to many different heights. Perhaps you could find something similiar in your area

I have an old Drafter's table...just the right height..Also have a drop leaf craft table that Joann's sells for cutting and you can buy the large cutting mat that goes with it...again just the right cutting height...Use a coupon or wait for it to go on sale.
