I have a used Gammill, 14' frame, and SR. I work in my basement rec room. I agree with the others, that the "stand up" machine (although I quilted today for about 5 1/2 hrs and sat on a drafting stool for most of that)is what I recommend--no sandwiching (which I hated), and it doesn't kill my shoulders and neck like FMQ on my DSM did. I love it! I quilt occasionally for others, but about half of the quilts I do are charity, family or mine. I suggest you go to the LongArm University website and check out what Cindy has to say about choosing a machine--and definitely consider a used machine if cost is a big factor--the Innova, Gammill, Nolting, APQS are all made for industrial use and last forever. Plus all can be retrofitted with a computer guided system if that is something you desire in the future.
