Hello All;
Another good source for small (and I do mean *small*) machine tools is Sherline.

I'll hopefully be bringing my lathe (it fits into a good sized suitcase), because there is one repair operation on our machine that really requires it.
If you want a nice setup for home use, you can't beat it. Just appreciate it's size limitations. You won't be making 3' diameter steel pieces on it, not in one weekend!
