Re: Need some recommendations for tooling

I recommended buy the lathe.

In parallel, reach out to local machine shops and find a sponsor to make your rails/plates/whatever other fancy, mostly flat custom parts you think you need.

The sponsor will be able to make your custom flat parts better than you will (maybe even faster!), and it doesn't cost any money to pick up the phone book and start calling local shops!
