I wish I was a carpenter and could explain well what was built for us, because I just love it!
The board is plywood and is shorter because it swings up from the floor at the exact working height. There is a hinge as long as the ironing board is wide that attaches to a board that goes across the cupboard, near the top and fairly close to the front, the back edge of the ironing board sits on this board when it is open. There is an angled support (4x1?) attached to the underside of the ironing board near the front, that is cut and hinged in the middle, with the middle folding up and laying against the back of the cupboard when closed. There is also a long hinge, like you might use to hold the lid of a toy box open that attaches from the underside of the ironing board down to the angled support, it makes it very sturdy when in use. He put a piece of plywood on the back wall and built on to it a little frame at the floor that make a track to hold the other end of the angled support. The angled support just rests in it- it isn't nailed down or hinged. The track is made of 2 vertical 'sides' app 12" tall and are attached at the floor to the back wall with enough space between them for the angled ironing board support to slide freely between them and then underneath the angled support is the 'front' of this frame that goes from the floor up maybe 6". To keep the angled support from jumping out of the track made by this little frame he put a piece of plywood that fits under the angle ironing board support but sticks out 1-2" beyond the frame. It isn't hinged or nailed down and seems to act as a pivot and a guide to keep it inside the track made by this frame. Sorry if this doesn't have clarity to match the enthusiasm!
Hi Tim, I am wondering what program/(s) you are using for this project. I am using CUTLIST. What did you use for the views?
Have a nice day.

I would have loved a set of plans that would download or print well. Lovely "graphics" bit lacking in the detail I was looking for.
Great idea. I like the smaller one. With the door opening like in the picture, if a piano hinge were
added, another board could be added as leg supports, when opened. (a decorative "clasp" & "handle"
would also be nice additions, @ a minimal cost) Great Job.
Tim, how did you get a cut list like that. I build furniture all the time and have been looking for something that works inside sketchup to get my cut lists and cutting diagrams but haven't been able to get one to work... is that something that is an add on to sketchup? Thanks,
Tracy Smith

I saw the video Kreg put out for this new jig and had high hopes for it.
I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.
First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…

Several months ago, I purchased the Kreg K4MS so that I could build the Lego Table as outlined on the companion "buildsomething" web site which exclusively uses pocket hole construction. I have considerable experience with conventional…
