Yes, I have full range of travel with about 1 extra foot at each end. When I first moved it in I had it centered on that end, but discovered that I wasted too much valuable wall space, so I decided to move it to one side. It was a big job on moving it into the shop, a couple of neighbors helped me. They were wondering on how I was going to fit it through the door. When I enclosed this space I installed a removable 5' wall panel, which we just removed. Weighing in at 2400 lbs you just don't pick it up with easy. Having to deal with a low (std height) sealing did help when it came to lifting it. We ended up just using rollers (bars) on the base and pry bars to move it into place. My shop's floor is any thing but flat. Has a bad slope on it, so I poured some self leveling concrete. Then discover the base is not parallel to the table and still had to use some major shims. I made 8 of these small jacks to make it easy to level and adj as needed.
