A midi lathe…
It is portable and you can build many creative and practical projects from bowls to christmas gifts… you can use free found lumber or purchased lumber. You can do all parts of the construction from rough wood to finished and smooth final product and a Midilathe is easily picked up and moved from appartment to house.
Yes the Midi lathe is the first must have

Excellent idea. It's a tool that could be used for a lifetime on its own with out any other power tools. So much can be done on the midi-lathe, from pens to small bowls. Add an extension or two and you can turn legs for furniture, baseball bats, or pool cues! So much can be done without any other power tools.
That being said, the scroll saw fits the bill too. Portable, perfectly suited for making small gifts... S2S material, however, is helpful.
