Michael's, JoAnns and other places sell "risers" which are about 6-8 inches tall, with ridges on the top to keep table legs in them. Set your table legs on these and now you have a raised table. I've seen others who stick the legs of the folding tables into PVC pipes which are cut to the desired height. I like the risers because they are easy to put on and off, so you can have the table for stand-up or sit-down use, whatever.

I saw the Martelli table at a show. I SO WANTED THIS TABLE!!! But I would have to invade my husbands space for it so without him there to show him how he could use it too, I didn't get it.

It kinda depends on if you want a cutting table that you can move or something more permanent. I like the table from Ikea suggested above. I would buy 2 and place them back to back to make a large square cutting table. Lots of storage underneath. You could add casters to make it moveable or higher. I have 2 counters that were made for a store. They were made in the wrong color, so I got them for $175 total. THey are really sturdy and have lots of storage. They are 24"x48", so with them back to back I have a 4ft square cutting table. I have a cutting mat that covers most of it. If I could keep the junk off of it it is an awesome cutting table. It is the right height to stand at, tons of storage underneath to hide my stash.

I have a horn table which can also be flipped to get out of the way.

I have the same Ikea table as coopah. I keep my big embroidery/sewing machine on it. I adjusted the height to what I wanted. It doesn't accomodate wheels though. However, I have tile floors and it moves easily over tile or wood. Ikea does have straight legs that accomocate locking wheels.

I do have a wheeled [locking wheels] kitchen cart that is the right height for me that I use for my cutting table.

If I had more space I would go with kitchen cabinert bases to my height - two of them back to back - and would have them stationary.

I used to demo a quilt cutting system at conventions/ guild meetings, and working on the typical folding tables was breaking my back. My husband & I went to Lowe's or Home Depot and found a kitchen trolley/ tea tray with 3 tiers of chrome shelves & wheels that rolled or could lock. He made me a cutting surface to the measurements that I needed of 1/2" beech faced plywood( sealed) with attached plastic plumbing pipe to slide into the 4 upright posts. It's served me very well. The 1st shelf underneath the top is excellent for storing rotary cutters, pin cushions, scissors, etc. The two lower shelves are good for storing ANYTHING.For more specific info reply & I'll provide whatever measurements you need, or other information. Good luck!

I just have the folding one from Walmart, think it was about 40 dollars, not height adjustable, but I put bed risers under the feet, I'm 5'4", and that made it perfect height for me. I don't sit at it though, only cut, and I have to stand to cut.

I have this one and got it on sale at Hancock fabrics in VA. I paid I think $179 for mine. It like the one I had before tends to be wobbly after a period of time. But it folds and adjusts which I need and it was the cheapest I could find.http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sullivans-...Table/22223305

I have a table that I use bed risers under the legs to adjust the height that suits my cutting needs...

Hi Martelli sells these type of tables. They look really nice. I would love one, but there out of my price range.
