i had about a 6 x8 room in the travel trailer. my bed and clothes were in there also. I ripped out the bed and just had a mattress on a piece of plywood that laid across the rubbermaid totes. It worked. most of my cutting was done on the picnic tables in the rv parks. and the spray basting. my machines went under the mattress in the corner where there was a little room between the totes. Except for the embroidery machine, it stayed on the desk since it could be a little delicate. i just had a little laptop stand that i used for all the machines. and the laptop too.
