Let me explain what you're seeing. To the left is the 'tower', a vertical box (2-piece) about 16" square and 7' tall, with a Pioneers logo on top. Behind it forming the left wall of the pit is a countertop and cabinet with a couple of drawers in it. It goes back maybe a total of 6 feet (counter plus tower).
Between the back of the counter and the back of the pit is where we put our battery cart, think "shelving unit on a hand truck".
Along the back is a workbench, about 6 feet long. Crates fit underneath and atop the shelf on the bottom. Against the back wall is a fold-out (trade-show type) 'wall' on which we hang banners. To the far right of the workbench we store more crates and miscellania, and there's another of the black 'walls'. Behind the wall at back our tubes of raw aluminum are stored.
Our pit cart is also our toolbox.
All this allows us to fit in as small as 8 x 8, although we prefer 10 x 10 just for the extra space. This year NJ had 9 x 9 pits.
