I came across that picture of a lathe mounted to the back of a jeep and thought, "This'll be a good joke." But only one guy mentioned tire pressure. All the rest have been as serious as 'what oil should I use'. So, a tip of the hat to the guy who mentioned tire pressure, thank you.

Oh yes, there is always someone to raise the "but what about this situation." For mobile units and on board ships level may not be possible. Other methods are employed to assure the bed ways are straight. So technically one could install a lathe on the inside wall of a yurt if a method to assure the ways were flat without any twist was employed.
For stationary installations such as a garage or basement workshop or factory floor using a level is by far and above the easiest method of assuring the bed ways are flat without any twist.
