PM-935 space required?

[Lotus54]

I did a search, but did not find.
what sort of space is realistically required for a 935?

I am still considering next machine, very much open to different ones. This seems it could be a good choice for fairly small areas (relatively).
It is more than I need, but better too much than too little.

I used to have a 935 and set it up in a corner of my shop/garage. This worked pretty well until I decided to pull it a bit away from the corner to get me away from a window and it's coverings. That and I put a few small holes in the screen. Oops...

Just a guesstimate on my part, but I'd say leave yourself about 5 square feet or so to be comfortable. But that's just a guess on my part.

Thanks, great info.

You can see my PM-935 in a basement shop setup in this video. If you want to see how I got the machine into the basement, go here.

Look at page three of the manual it gives you dimensions.
