Neither. I have a Horn 2136 cabinet with a lift. I got acrylic cut and made a surround. The machine has a wooden shim under it as the cabinet is set for a Pfaff 2170. I can just swap machines. I use a zigzag for binding and the 1500 is straight only, so I'll have to stick the Pfaff in the cabinet. I also have a Koala lite set up for the Pfaff, but there is no room to quilt as that cabinet is up against a wall. So it will be swap machines.
