All in all, we have it better than some and worse than others.

This is essentially exactly what Shaker's build space is, though we have a multipurpose room and a metal / wood shop. It's rather annoying to not be able to leave a single thing out and losing stuff into the void that is Shaker's closet. We never have trouble storing parts in the pits at competitions because it's more room than we have for our stuff!
It takes about 20 minutes to take everything out and 20 minutes to put it back... leaves us at about an hour and a half to actually do anything!
However, we've got a nice shop full of neat manual tools, including a x-y mill, a few lathes and drill presses, and a horizontal bandsaw.
