That motor means you will be extremely limited in what you can turn
outboard, irrespective of which way you pivot the headstock.

how so

The motor sticks out past the end of the headstock, hence, the max diameter you can turn is limited by the distance between the center of the face plate and the motor, times two, which in this case is probably not more than 12". That means a 24" diameter piece is the max you could turn.
