In designing a stand for myself, I will try to incorporate the following:
1. Make the stand so that you can add lots of weight to keep the vibration
down.
2. Make the motor mount so that it is easy to change speeds.
3. Possibly I will add wheels so I can move the lathe if needed.
Can anyone add to this list of considerations?

I agree with George that a wide footprint is important.
