Mystery horizontal mill

I think ThunderDog might have touched on this...I see X axis wheel and Y axis wheel, what is the 3rd diagonal wheel's purpose?
The "diagonal" hand wheel would be for the raising and lowering of the knee.
What I was mentioning is the cylindrical portion under the x axis. That cylindrical section having graduations to permit the pivoting of the table to a specific degree. But, it's hard to tell with that photo.

Honestly, after having scraped my Wells Index milling machine that would be a fun little project to cleanup and scrape back to original.
 
ThunderDog, I was watching a nice looking Index machine for only $900 but it has been rake down. Looked a little smaller than a Bridgeport. Maybe it will come back up if it didn't sell.
 
Back to the top for all of the Friday night drinkers!!
