Iron Machine Antique Antique tool Metal


I got this online thinking it was some sort of old timey drill press but now I can see the chuck does not lower it just rotates. I still think it's really neat. But I haven't a clue what it was used for. I had thought one handle rotates the chuck and the other lowers it but nope both just turn. Other then the wood it's in pretty good shape I should be able to clean it up easily if I replace the wood bits.

Know this will be a long shot but do you guys have any more info on this guy? I'd still like to clean it up. Considering most of the parts are wood I should be able to build most of it easily if I can get the measurements. Do you guys perhaps know a company name or someone who has one?
