    Default sewing table
    Has anyone ever used a drafting table for a sewing table? How sturdy are they?

    I used one for a long time. My husband cut out a hole so that my machine would set flush. I now have a Horn table which I really like, but the drafting table worked well.

    I had a drafting table but I don't know how stable a DSM would be on it and how low can it adjust to.

    My friend uses one as a cutting table but not a sewing table. As long as you can get the stability you want.....

    I use one for my cutting table, but I'm sure it work as a sewing table, because it's REALLY sturdy :-)
