Love, love, love your sewing table! All that storage and such a great sewing surface has me drooling. The cutting table with the book case - perfect of a quilter!
I have something similar to your cutting table, but without all that beautiful storage. which automatically makes your cutting table better than mine. Over time the area that extends past the wheels has curved downward just enough to make my cutting conform to the curve. DH says that is from so much pressing down with the rotary cutter.
While it's too late to save my table from that fate, I think that adding a couple of legs, or another set of shelves customized-to-fit snugly under the table and in front of the wheels, will prevent your table from the curving.
Enjoy your sewing room. I am truly green with envy - all my stuff is scattered around the house. That's good because it forces me to get up to iron, to cut, etc. It's bad because the house looks like a tornado went through the house and scattered fabric, scraps, thread, cutters, all over the house.
