Came across this lathe recently, still trying to find out who made it.
Any thoughts?

I own a Baldwin lathe just like the one shown however mine does not have the treadle wheel or components… I do believe you could have gotten this lathe lineshaft driven or maybe just adapt it over as shown in this old image. Note the interesting milling attachment! Also when I get more time I will share some other interesting facts and features about this lathe… I will start a new thread as to not hijack this one.

Remarkable. Does this machine have single-point dog clutch lead screw reversing?
