do you think I could use 2 of these with a top on them for a cutting table? Looking to create a table for my sewing room without spending a ton of $

The tops are anything but stiff and do warp. Mine also move left to right. I would not use these in your application idea as I do not think they would be stable enough for my mothers sewing.

I think that would work. As long as you can have something sturdy across both of them. The storage inside is pretty good.

It could possibly work, they are pretty sturdy. It would depend on how heavy a table top is,but I think it would work. I hope this helps. Paul

That should be no problem. These units are quite substantial if assembled properly. The good thing is they are easy to assemble.

I have my sewing machine and serger sitting on it and sew with no problems. It works great for me. Because it is slim it fits well in my room but it is not the best if you want it to cut large items on. For my machine use and cutting small items it is perfect.

No don't use the top as a cutting board, it will ruin it. It's not cutting board material.

No, not really. Each square has to be attached to each leg. You'd wind up with a very short table. You could use composite decking, but your table will be flimsy. I suggest sticking to 2x lumber. It's meant for 2x4s (the screw holes line up perfectly), but it's still possible to wider 2x lumber. You could cover your lumber top with composite materials.

I don't see why you couldn't use it for that. Remember, it is quilted and the outline of the furniture pad may show through your table cloth. If you don't mind that, I say go for it.

The bottom section is deep and could probably hold 80 to 100 smaller sized spools if you layered them on top of each other. The top tray is not as deep and is sectioned. I don't use it for thread but you possibly could. I use it for pins, needles, measuring tape, buttons etc. I love the sewing basket. It looks beautiful and holds all of my supplies. Hope this helps.

It should. The lower shelf would have to be at its lowest height to take into account the height of the machines. It should easily hold a serger and a sewing machine. The second sewing machine could be stored on the pullout table. This is what I do. However, since my sewing machine is relatively tall, I have to take off the spools when I slide the table inwards when I close up the unit. The little, adjustable shelves hold my sewing basket and things like patterns and scissors for easy access. There is some limited space for fabric - probably enough for one or two ongoing projects.

I got two stands. That way you can put your work across them for cutting, painting, routing, preparing etc. Sometimes I just need a table to lay tools or assemble something, and then lay a top across them for a work surface.

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.

Yes,I have used it to sew a quilt top together because it stitches a seam and overlocks at the same time. It is especially good for knit fabric. :-)

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

Fred I am sorry but I can not help.I would suggest taking a twin size sheet and making a cover.if you have any sewing skills. Just a thought.

Yes, it would work well. It's got a nice weight and lays down nicely. You might want to try the colorful patterns for clothes drawers or the white. The light brown is kind of dour. There is no cutting guide on the back and the weave is not square, so you have to mark on the back with a T square to get a 90 degree cut.

You can use them in the sewing room. Good for snipping thread. Short blade sfor cutting out fabric

Hi there. I took a good look at the front and back and it looks like you can do this. There are two rows of stitching for each section and the threads are fairly thin - you will need to use a seam cutter (sewing item). It does look as if you can remove them and create one large section. Note - there is a zipper for both sections and the bottom one is close to where the section starts - does not look like it would interfere with your trying to make this a one section bag - just don't open the bottom zipper.Regards

You could try tucking the extra length under the legs or if you're handy with a sewing machine, you could take the extra off both ends but I wouldn't put it on a 5' table otherwise. It will look sloppy.

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.
