this looks like a great "tool" everything in one package...
I have a roll cart for machine and I use the snap together storage containers for supplies. best thing I did was create a traveling supply kit that doesn't get used at home so I have what I need when get to a retreat or class. If you take classes do yourself a favor and create one.

I also use a very large weekley pil container for keeping pacages of sewing machine needles. this is in my travel case for classes and I can put a needle back into the container after a small amount of usage and know I used it but is still good and know what it is.

I then realized that the last track(?) on the feet dog acts as a perfect scant guide and I've been making my blocks the perfect size every since.
