OK place and I post a lot but machinist forums are better 'bang for the buck'.
No room in that machine for what you want to do. Get a decent vertical mill and a metal lathe. You can be all in for less than 4K and maybe closer to 3K if you take your time. I have one of those 3 in 1 machines just like what is pictured and it serves me well on small parts for general repairs. I would not do any real "machining" on it.
If you don't know how to compensate for 'tolerances' on any machine you have a long way to go and a less than quality machine ain't gonna help you get there.
