I also put the skinny end to the right.

I turned my ironing board around so that the narrow end is on my right (I''m right handed). It gives me more surface to iron large pieces of fabric.
Good job, Sweetpeaches. |
Me too... the small end is just right for the iron and leaves me more wide space for ironing...

Makes perfect sense. My "regular" ironing board has a heavy wire attachment at the broad end for holding the iron so the manufacturer must have been aware of the need for more of the wide space. I've made an even wider add-on that makes for easier ironing of yardage.

My son does this, it works really well

Well ain't that a great idea! Have got to turn mine around!
|
I put the pointed end on my left side and iron on the wide part too. I set my iron on a potholder on the countertop I have in my sewing room. I try to face the iron so a cat can't get to it. I always turn it off, unless I have to leave the room for a split second. I'm glad you thought of doing this.

Love this idea and surprised that only you thought of it. Don't stop now you could be on a roll.
