how or where do you get the extension bed up to 42"?

Item TCLC10XB is the extension bed for both lathes KWL-1018 and KWL-1018VS. Item TCLC12XB2 is the extension bed for lathe KWL-1218VS.

I have an older version w/out variable speed can I retro fit one for better control?

Yes, I believe so... Penn State Industries sells a Variable Speed Midi Lathe Conversion Kit. I would check with them to verify it works with your lathe. From their description it looks like it will fit or mount on varicose lathes.

Under product description it says measurement system is metric? What is metric on this?

Nothing is measured in the metric system. That listing detail is incorrect.
