What am I seeing?

Looks like some type machining tool, a broaching machine?

Something Dr. Emmett built?

Someone must have had an acres large shop.

Don't know what it is, but I always wanted one.

It appears to be a milling machine powered by a belt.

roy prins · Mar 1, 2022

Self propelled too !!

rustyfarmall · Mar 1, 2022

A self propelled automatic ice cream maker??

Is that some sort of a reaper to the right in the picture?

Majorman · Mar 1, 2022

That is a reaper used before things like binders. The knife cuts the crop onto a table then the arms come round and sweep it off leaving it in heaps for the persons behind to gather into sheaves and tie up. My father worked one when he was a boy in the early 1920's.

Im going to suggest that it is a power hammer.

(quoted from post at 10:12:26 03/01/22) Im going to suggest that it is
a power hammer.

The wedge on the end of the moving rod is at the bottom of its stroke of about ten inches, the table below might be adjustable up and down, possibly to split wood?

Maybe with taping equipment

Post pounder.

(quoted from post at 19:35:54 03/01/22) Post pounder.

Don, how would it move sideways up to and away from the post? The belt will not allow it to swing out.

Brian G. NY · Mar 2, 2022

My thoughts as well....planishing hammer or forging hammer.

donjr · Mar 2, 2022

The length of the hammer on the other side looks interesting.. There isn't a good picture of the other side which may tell us what t is..
