Then buy a decent lathe. Don't be afraid to buy a used one - old lathes outlast old machinists. There are plenty of old, under-priced Atlas lathes (maybe even a South Bend or two) out there. You just have to keep an eye out for them.
As was already mentioned, a "combination" anything isn't particularly good at,... anything.
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt (& scars).
