Go to Youtube and search "welding positioner". Even if you're not intending to rotate something being welded, there are lots of videos there that could give you some ideas you could build upon.CanoeCruiser

I made a band sawmill mill nearly 20 years ago, and used trailer hubs (bolted the hub to the plate, and with the four bolts was able to shim it parallel, use the stub shaft to mount the wheels that ran the band blade, and the pulley from the engine, I will try to post a picture not the best but one I took many years ago,Comment

cut the spindle and tube off a full float rear axle [d60/70/80, 14bolt, sterling etc] to get timken taper bearings and a hollow center tube. Bolt check to the wheel hub or an adapter that bolts to it. Drive the chuck via leather or rubber belt around the OD of the chuck face. This way you still have a hollow headstock.
there are lots of small epoxy granite cnc machines being made these days. It has incredible self levelling and flatness properties.
