You can also hit the thrift store and find something you don't feel bad about cutting up.
This is what I did: http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...e-t216312.html http://www.quiltingboard.com/tutoria...e-t216324.html The posts got splintered when a mod moved it to the tutorials section, so it's in 2 parts. A lot of computer desks would work this way, or I've seen people do the same with Dining tables. I've made the Height Adjustable desk 2.0 and it's using all Ikea components, but a little less adjustable, because I was bumping my knees on the adjusters. I also built it at standing height, so it's the same height as my cutting table and the LA, so my chair doesn't need adjusting when I scoot around the room. |
I have a few of the folding sewing tables that were popular about 30 or more years ago. They have two levels when set up. Some were made for specific models of machines and some are more adaptable. Just google "Vintage folding sewing table". I paid $6 to $9 each in thrift stores. They do not look sturdy, but are.

If your 301 is a short bed get a cradle and put it into a cabinet. There are also card tables made for both models.

You also need the brackets inside the cabinet that support the front part of the cradle. You could also get card tables for the 301 and 221. They don't have the same foot print, so you need one for each machine.

I've got some great cabinets from the thrift store. They usually run about $10 to $15. But then you may need someone to cut an insert to fit your machine.
Just a thought... |
