The Launch Pad is the frame made for the Block Rockit. It's a 10' frame. I have the Grace SR2 frame but only because the Launch Pad wasn't out when I bought my machine. Hopefully one day I will be able to upgrade.
If you plan on doing pantagraphs you will need to order the rear handles...I think they are around $99.00 If you plan on doing ruler work you will need to order the ruler base which again I think is around $99.00. (I made my ruler base.) Also I think you have to order the laser for pantagraphs...depends on what type of deal Kathy Quilts is running.
Other than those 3 items the machine comes with everything you need. It's still one of the cheapest machines around with all the extras that most machines have and they are all standard on the Block Rockit such as stitch regulator.
Good luck with your decision.
