    Smile My new Cutting Table, I paid $6.99, you'll never believe what it is.

    Went to my local Goodwill this weekend and when I walked in there was this cabinet sitting there to greet me. My first thought was it would make a great cutting table. It is a Science Table from the local university that was donated by a retired Professor. I looked at the price and was shocked to see $6.99. I looked at it opened the drawers saw a sink, and some electrical conduit under the sink. I went home and told DH about it, of course he asks if it would be a good garage workbench if it didn't work out for me. We went back to GW so Dh could take a look at it and I was even more excited to see all the potential. We brought it home and gave it a super good cleaning figured out what all the extra pieces were for and set it up. I use the sink to put all my patterns, cutting tools and Best press. The drawers are great for storing my fabric and the bottom drawer hold all my magazines.[ATTACH=CONFIG]304318[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]304319[/ATTACH] This is the sink
