I had my handyman/contractor dude attach a power strip on the underside of the table. This way, I can easily turn off the iron at the end of the day by clicking the on/off switch on the power strip. The power strip has a super-long cord so I can move the table around to suit whatever size project I am working on. I also put felt stick-on floor protector thingies on the feet of the table to protect the hardwood floor. We screwed in two hooks to guide/keep the cords where I want them. Here's a photo of the finished table! Yum! Pressing heaven! Totally worth the effort!
