Default B-line frame owners

Hi everyone,
I have the opportunity to buy a gently used B-line frame (with a Juki TL-98 and a cruise control). The seller is in my country and seems willing to ship it to me, so this could be my chance to get a beginner setup for a very good price.
BUT I have to think about how to make it fit in my new sewing room. It`s roughtly a 9 X 10 feet room (110 X 128 inch). It`s small for a frame, but I HATE to baste and I have no space floor to do it. I do not intend to do anything larger than a twin quilt (85 inch) and I would mostly do free motion (no pantograph).
I have a few questions:
1) Can you set a "custom" size with this frame, or are you limited to a choice of size (like 5, 7 or 10 feet)?
2) How large is the frame (more than 36 inch?)
3) Could you put it against a wall if you don't want to do pantograph from behind?
4) Is it light/easy to move (if put against a cabinet door, for exemple, that you don't need to access very often).
5) Do you like your frame?

Thank you!
Annie

I don't have this frame, but I found this nice description of it. Perhaps it will answer some of your questions.

Thanks Dunster; but I forgot to say that the one I'm considering is the Studio model, not the table one.
