I have debated something like a watch maker's lathe for smaller parts,
Here is an option for turning small parts that aren't collet sized and may need close in hand work like filing:

I made a 1" (into collet) to 1-1/2" - 8 adapter for mine, which is stamped "1/8 - 5/8 cap." It also allows a large chuck you don't want to change to hold small work. They screw directly onto this style of indexer:

If I'm going to mount a drill chuck in my spindle I'll use one of my tailstock chucks and an adapter sleeve to 3MT. Now I'm curious about how much runout that setup might have . Maybe I'll look into that tomorrow after I finish making bread . We're out of everything but loaf bread ...
