Hey y'all,
New guy here. New to this place & new to machining. (That's not entirely true, I have monkeyed with lots of equipment over the years), but I've never owned anything until now.

So I picked up this Dalton Six B-4, and I think it's a lot 5, SN# 333, but it's hard to read & I don't know what their 6 looks like.

I bought it not really knowing exactly what I was getting, and I ended up with this machine, another smaller one, and a pulley shaft doohickey I've been reading about here.
I was told by the previous owner that it all attached together, but he never actually set it up and plugged her in. I'm guessing it's missing a few pieces.

I bought it to use, but after looking at it I've been wondering if maybe I shouldn't try to restore it as well.

Figured I'd run it past you guys first...

Thanks!
