Mike,
You had mentioned about possibly of getting a Bandsaw, Jointer and Speed Changer at some point for your Model 10ER. As has been mentioned all are possible.
The Speed Changer was made for the Model 10's and adds speeds above and below those you are able to get with the fixed pulleys. Buying a Speed Changer only is usually a bit spendy. All of the Speed Changers I have had came on Model 10's I have purchased and many cheaper for the whole thing than buying a Speed Changer alone.
Near the end of their production the Model 4E Jointer was introduced for the Model 10's. It used a special Headrest to mount it on along with a different Motor Pulley setup. You can see the Model 4E Jointer below on my Model 10ER along with the Speed Changer.

The Model 4E Jointer mounting is specific to the Model 10's. The chart on the bench is the Speed Changer Speed Chart. Even when the Mark 5 came out and the Jointer changed from the Model 4E to the Model 620 adding the mounting Posts for the Mark 5 it was still able to use the Model 10 Headrest Mounting Kit. When the Jointer changed to the Model 620C it no longer had the mounting holes for the Model 10 Headrest Mounting kit.
Although not one you specifically mentioned an earlier major accessory was made for the Model 10's as the A-34 Jig Saw. It attaches to the Headstock and uses the Main Table for its Table. This doesn't require any changes to the Model 10E or 10ER to use.

It was after the introduction of the Mark 5 in 1954 and the Model 610 Jig Saw (shown below) later that year, that the first Adapter was made to use on the Model 10's to mount the new Add-A-Tools (later called SPT's) made for the Mark 5. As more SPT's were added the second Power-Mount Adapter Kit, previously referenced, was made.

Using a Bandsaw on a Model 10E or 10ER requires a mounting bracket and a way to power it like the special Headstock Pulley from the Power-Mount Adapter Kit. A reversing motor as previously mentioned would allow you to mount the Bandsaw on the Quill side of the Headstock and attach a Power Coupler Hub to the Spindle.
The Power Mount Adapter Kit 11 920 below includes the "A" Adapter (left), the "B" Adapter (Mid), the special Headstock Pulley with Power Coupler Hub and 2 longer Jointer Mounting Posts. The original Adapter Kit only included the "A" Adapter. Both Kits included instructions.

There are other options for powering SPT's. One is the Power Stand Shopsmith sold which would have a pulley set specific to an SPT mounted on it. Another is the Power Station which can be used for many of the SPT's. It cannot be used for the Mark Mount Planer and I don't recommend it for the Jointer due to its top RPM being lower than the normal RPM's when used on a Mark 5. A Power Station is shown below. Other options for powering SPT's can be less expensive than the Power-Mount Adapter Kit shown above. Many have built their own stands.

As I said about getting a Speed Changer with a Model 10 for sale the same holds true for other items mentioned above. I have 2 Model 4E Jointers with the Headrest and Motor Pulley sets I purchased with Model 10's. I received a complete Power Mount Adapter Kit 11 920 with a Model 10 I purchased for restoration. These were all purchases near me found on craigslist. After restoring the Model 10 I sell them and keep the special items. In most cases I can sell the Restored tool with what it would have come with from the factory minus those "extras" for enough to cover my costs. I mention that they are near me since you list the Pacific NW as your location.
