Hey Darren,
That's a capstan lathe.
It has a turret (or capstan) that will hold a number of differternt tools with lots of stops you can pre-set to do multiple and mind numbingly repetitive operations. You could buy it and go into business making thousands of identical widgets. Don't know about you though, but making more than one of just about anything makes me a little flaky.
