Portable Sewing Machine Table with Wheels

I bought a portable sewing table . . . . . well it’s sort of portable.  A bit heavy,
no ‘handles’ for carrying, or wheels for walking it into retreats, etc. 
However, the price was right!  $125 with free shipping!  Can’t go wrong with that. 
And it’s the perfect height, width, etc, etc.  Here’s what it looks like . . . .

So, you might guess what comes next – that’s right, I wanted wheels and
handles on my table to make it truly portable!

 

It really turned out great, and here are the steps to transform your own table.
I purchased 2 – two inch stationary caster wheels and
one 8 count packet of #14 screws – 3/4” long.

And my part was done, except for showing my hubby
where to place the wheels.  And here is his contribution to this project.
(I’ve gotta give credit where credit’s due! )

so, He measured, then he had to remove the
table bracket and grind it down a bit,
so that the wheel bracket would fit snugly.

And it’s done!      Well that part is done – then the ball was back in my court. 
Remember those handles I was telling you about.  Well, I decided my table
needed a bag with handles.  And I made one, however I did NOT make a pattern,
just ‘winged’ it as I went.  So here’s the finished bag with my portable table! 
Can’t wait for the next retreat!  Oh, and it also holds my cutting mats and large rulers!  Sweeeeeet!
