After numerous back surgeries I purchased the bed risers for my cutting table, they worked perfectly. It felt (or should I say I DIDN'T feel the backache problem) great to get some cutting done without hurting so bad I had to lay on my heating pad & a pain medication for an hour.Will be moving to a bigger sewing room soon and will be investing in another set of bed risers for more tables.

What an excellent idea! I use an adjustable drafting table (not electric)that I have set to it's highest sitting and in the middle of the room so I can move around it to cut. My machine is on a sewing table that I specifically bought because it was the lowest I could find!
