EPE Online Ironing Board Saver Project

	Ironing Board Saver Approx construction cost US$43

	Over-consumption of power and damage to the environment are two concerns of great interest to many people today. To those not so involved with "green" efforts, the following project will appeal on safety aspects. The author has noted from discussions with many of his friends who do the majority of the clothes ironing in their households that at some time everyone accidentally leaves the iron on, seemingly no matter what presence of mind they normally enjoy. For instance, a mother may suddenly have to leave what she is doing to investigate an unexplained noise. This Ironing Board Saver project was envisioned to prevent clothes irons being left on accidentally, thus saving electricity and reducing the risk of a possible fire. More details on this construction project can be found in the April 1999 issue of EPE Online, the world's first web-delivered electronics and computing hobbyist magazine.
