Thanks Charlie and John, now of course I am "thinking" about the bench top and "thinking" it would be a interesting project to build a concrete bench top.
Hopefully I can contain myself and get my lathe back to working this year.

Of course, it all depends upon how much torque you need, but I direct-mounted mine on my 7 x 14 mini-lathe.
