Bought this from a friend at work whose father had owned it. His dad had been dead for quite some time and he was just selling stuff off because his mother was moving into a nursing home.He said his dad had used it at home to do work in his trade as a pattern maker. He thought his dad put the motor and switch on it and removed the pulley and lever that allowed it to change speed while turning. I'd like to get some info on what that mechanism looked like so I could reproduce it.
