Fair disclosure: Our team has 85 students.

We have part of the school's old auto shop, about 900 SqFt, and the technology classroom, about 1000 SqFt, leaving about 22 SqFt per student total. But the clean work folks (about 25 students) have another classroom they use, so we have 31 SqFt per student for 'dirty' work and storage. And we're not really crowded.

Not every student shows up every meeting. When they do, we are standing room only in the 500 SqFt 'meeting area'. Also, this includes NO practice area at all, and not many large machines

I can see how a small team might be out of room at that rate.
