You can buy a travel case that has the correct support for these machines. They aren't the typical cases found at big box stores but are the ones that you find vintage machines in. Usually with two compartments and 2 pegs to attach the machine to. You can use any machine out of a cabinet if it's supported adequately by a case.
Candace, thanks for the information. I will have to check them out later for the feeet or screws. Barring that, I'll see what can be done for a case if she doesn't want the cabinet.
