A number of years ago Fine Woodworking put out a book called making and Modifying machines that has a couple of lathes in it. Not too hard to build but the cost of the parts would probably be close to a midilathe unless you were a good scrounger.
I built a stroke sander out of it that works well.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
