I see Monarch 10ee's show up on Craig's list every few months. Really heavy, excellent lathes. The South Bend Heavy 10 is good too and can be had for around $2,000.

I wouldn't shy away from a 3 phase motor either. A variable frequency drive (VFD) can be purchased for around $100 for a 1-2 hp motor.
