Default Juicer for making vegetable stock

I normally make veg stock made per Mark Bittman's recipe. However
impractical juicers are for regular use, given the time, heat, dirty
pots, and waste (from spoilage of unused vegetables) involved,
extracting juice and freezing for future use seems like a feasible
idea.

Hence, I ask: does anyone have a suggestion as to a brand or model of
juicer that:

* Produces vegetable juice without a lot of pulp
* Isn't gigantic (say, not much bigger than a 11 cup food processor)
* Is practical for moderate, non-commercial use, without the need for
frequent changes of consumable parts
* Isn't really difficult to set up
* Doesn't make an enormous mess (a small mess is acceptable)
* Has small parts that are dishwasher safe

Things like yield and price aren't as important, within reason.

Although I have only short-term experience with it, the juicer I
bought just recently sounds pretty close to what you're describing.
It removes the pulp, and sends it into a separate container.

It's about the size of a food processor, and the structure is fairly
similar, with a round, flat blade. There's a certain amount of mess,
of course, but it's containable, and all of the parts are dishwasher-
safe.

So far, I've been impressed with it, and I think it would probably
accomplish what you're wanting to do, though I haven't used it for
soups yet. The literature also suggests that the pulp of some veggies
be frozen for future use in other dishes.

This one is the same LaLanne juicer that used to be on a constant
infomercial loop, but I found mine at one of the retail home stores.
