Would this table be sturdy enough to hold a large cutting mat and be used to cut quilt fabric by rotary cutter (some pressure needed to make cuts)?

I would say yes. I use it for a desk to stand at and have piles of books on it. It's a great table. Very solid

Probably, as long as it was put together properly. If you are pushing down you should be fine, however if you are pushing horizontally there is some give on my table no matter how much I tighten the screws. (I keep the leaf dropped and use this table to fold laundry on, maybe if the leaf is up it's sturdier?)

Laurie, I haven't used it for that purpose, yet, but I think it would be good. Maybe not ideal because it is only 24 inches wide. I have found that if I make sure the legs are locked, it is very sturdy and not at all wobbly. I would like the highest setting for cutting out patterns.

I have not machined it but would think it would machine well with a carbide cutter. I think it would be plenty strong to support the weight of a 2 1/4 hp router.

The table top is only about1/2 inch thick and the edge is 2 inches. It is great for crafting and quilting, but I don't think it is strong enough for tools.

I haven't tried it personally, but I believe this machine is plenty strong enough to handle quilting. It has a few quilt-specific stitches, but depending on the results you're looking for, it may not have all the quilting stitches that you'd get on a higher-end or quilt-specific machine.

For safety's sake, I would recommend cutting the 4x8 sheet of plywood in half first. Certainly the work table is strong enough to hold a sheet of plywood, but cutting it with a saw would not be safe.

No, doe this table is sturdy I don't think it's big enough for a craft work.

I wouldn't recommend it. While sharp and sturdy, I doubt it would withstand repeated blows or any type of blocking (I've used mine against cardboard and other soft materials and it already has a few small chips).

It will hold a sewing machine. I don't know about all your quilting equipment. I scrapbook and use it for retreats. It handles beautifully and folds up very nice. Everyone wants one when they see it. It takes me about four trips to get all my supplies into the workspace, but I bring all my scrapbook items including my large Cricut cutting machine. Hope that helps.

I feel this table is STURDY. It is well designed and well constructed. I feel you would find it quite solid when your sewing machine was "humming along".

I would say yes. The table is pretty heavy duty. I was surprised how strong it felt every time I go to move it. Hope this helps.

It "may" be sturdy enough, but since it folds in half there is a split in the middle that is slightly higher than the rest of the top's surface. This would make your keyboard wobble back and forth, so I wouldn't recommend this table for that purpose.

I used a table like this before and when I sewed the whole table vibrated so I would not recommend it for sewing.

I feel the table is sturdy. Although I don't do embroidery on my sewing machine, the table does not bounce when I sew. The table is heavy enough that I cannot lift it off the floor from the center of the table, but the wheels allow it to be easily rolled. Overall, the table has made it easier to store my machine and sewing things, and have immediate access when I'm ready to sew.

It might but I wouldn't try it. I'm sure it was not designed for that. It's a craft table.

The sewing table is great when the drop leaf is up there is more than enough room to sew large items. It is also very usable when the leaf is down real happy with my purchase.

It might. I usually use mine when I am going to do a lot of sewing or cutting things out on the table.I used to use it at work when I was collating things on the conference table.Hope this helps. Friends who have tried it also like it.Diane
