Jim I just took a good look at the lathe.... it looks like it sort of says Levin, not Boley... but that is not a Levin headstock... and the bed is missing the holes for the gear train that a lot of Levin's had at that time had.... so who knows what it says.... and if you mean the forks seen over his right shoulder in the first picture, that is a hydraulic press.... but it wouldn't surprise me that he could have done something with a bike....... from what we know about all this guy did was make stuff for spies and methods to deliver chemicals...... I did get to play with the dart gun disguised as a fountain pen that he made....
