I bath in the tub so I can use the hand held shower to spray him, then wrap him in a towel & carry him across the hall to the sewing room. I have the opposite "leaning problem" though, he leans right up against me & lays his head against my body, I have to keep moving him back to brush him. LOL
My ironing board was my mothers, and she had it before I was born so it's probably 45 years old at least. I don't know what "modern" ironing boards are like. My first thought was that the ironing board top might be too thin/narrow for the clamp to attach to securely, but then I realized you could just put a piece of plywood or something in there if you need to. And would the weight of the arm cause the ironing board to lean or tilt, or could you brace it up somehow?

I have one that leans in to me, too. I don't mind that as much because at least I'm not stretching to get to them. Plus, I love feeling him all snuggled up to me.
