I went with the Grizzly G0516 which is a 10x24 lathe by Sieg with a Mini-mill on it. The lathe is decent, the mill is, well, a bit small, but useful. I'll get a separate mill later, but this combo saves a huge amount of space. It is not hard to switch between the two.

Tonite I used the lathe to make a tool to press the Greyborg swingarms on. Uses a piece of all thread. The shoulders keep everything lined up. It worked out nicely:
