Hi Adrian.
Not a woodturner as such, but have a done a bit in the last couple of years. Our Menshed has 2 in regular use, and we are fortunate that one of our members is a long time turner and teaches others. Yes, they are messy, and eye protection is a must. We have been fortunate that ours have been donated, and we have several more in storage, yep, people buy them and find there is more to it than sticking a bit of wood between centres. For a small one that would suit your requirements check out the Carbatec online catalogue. Other vendors will probably have the same facility on their websites. Have fun, you can make some nice stuff on them once you get the hang of it. Just remembered, there was one about the size you want in the Cootamundra Menshed when I lived there, one of the members used to make wooden Pen Casings on it. So they are out there.
