After all of the good comments I decided on the Jet 1220VS and also purchased the 28" bed extension which gives me 48" between centers. I am not much of a turner but on occasion I need to turn a leg or some other detail of a piece that I am building. I felt this would fit my needs and at the same time not take up too much floor space when not in use. I built the stand with a drop leaf to accommodate the extension and plenty of storage for all the lathe tools and accessories. The stand sits on leveling casters and stores neatly behind the joiner/planner when not in use.

now that you have made that, you can get rid of your other tools, no use once you have a lathe, except for the bandsaw and dust collection
