Hello All..
I'm in the process of having a contractor re-finish our basement and in doing so am going to have an area for my quilting designed. My home isn't that big so my space is somewhat limited. We're at the stage now where we are designing where closets go and just how much space I'll need for large cutting tables, shelving and notions. Part of our dilemma is that my long arm frame is so big that it takes up lot of the real estate in the space. An idea that we've had are to put locking casters on the legs of the frame. That way I can push it against a wall and roll it out when I need to use it.

My concern is that the frame with my 17" machine on it is so heavy that the casters may not work out. Has anyone done this? If so can you give me an idea of how well it worked. Looking for some advise if anyone has experience with doing this..

Thanks!
Kim
