Ask Amadeal? If nothing, ask them for a sensible referral?

Arc option is likely good, but depending on your location, collection from the other mini-lathe suppliers might be of benefit to the wallet. Personally, I might check out Arc, Warco, Axminster, Chester, etc and choose one that appeals, or is close enough to collect (if the cost is important). Google is likely your best friend.

Other options might be ebay, gumtree, twitface marketplace. Likely not new, but depends on what you actually mean by ‘off the shelf’.

Chances are that many of the already available mini lathe stands may either fit, or can be redrilled to suit the bolt spacing for the Amadeal.

If all else fails, you could fabricate your own stand.

FWIW my advice would be; once the stand is firmly in place, use Rollie's Dad's Method (As detailed in Ian Bradley's "The Amateur's Workshop", and advised by Myford ), and elsewhere, to remove twist from the bed, to maximise accuracy.

Howard.
