Since space is an issue, another option is a "custom" bowl lathe, Find a headstock, preferably 1-8TPI with 2MT so all of the jet accessories work with it. Mount headstock on a piece of 10x10 square tubing, again look at Google search images for "custom bowl lathe" for ideas. Built right, it could be fit in a 2x4 work space.
