I have built dedicated stands for my "bench top" tools so they are at the right height and are solid. I miss the old (very old) Delta that I inherited from my uncle. It's a 1040's industrial version that I have at home. The bench top is in my vacation house where I'm doing most of my work now.
My midi lathe is OK but I miss the power and flexibility of the full size versions. I still need to build a heavier stand to control vibration as I turn a lot of green wood with the bark still on and the blanks not well balanced.
