how about something like this ...http://www.proxxon-tools.com/tools/Prox ... Lathe.html
its definitely caravan sized!

or slightly bigger ...
http://www.rutlands.co.uk/workshop-&-po ... wood-lathe

I've no idea if either are any good, but theyre both from major tool makers.

Possibly not the sort of thing you are after, but there was (is?) a Tyme "Little Gem" on the 'bay. A real miniature, but if it's as good as my old Tyme Avon was, it's OK.
(No connection with seller - just noticed it in passing)

Thanks Nev i've never seen proxxon before it fits the bill ok just the job in caravan.
But then again i like the look of the Sip i can still drill my blanks on that. 8)
I had thougt to use RLMP 300 but alot of folks say thae are heavy.
I all ready have Record Lathes here CL4VS & DML305 MIDI.
So can use same Morse tapers & chucks.
I can always take BBQ out of the van to save weight.
Thanks Geoff

ps just of to look at Tyme Little Gem on Ebay.
