All I would have to do is build the cases all the same size and it would certainly be easy enough to mod an existing cabinet.
I like cases because they take up less room but prefer a machine in a cabinet to sew at.

Now here it's just the opposite. They consider the cabinet furniture and price it plus add for the machine. Have you thought about one of those older generic folding tables? I have a free arm one and a flat bed one. The flat bed ones are designed to use a machine in it's case. There's been a couple on CL lately.
