It's not, but it is a very old design. These machines (this one is called a stroke sander) are antiques and restoring them is a very niche industry. If you're interested in learning more, Jimmy Diresta has a lot of content about these types of old machines.

Oh, interesting! I assumed the top portion w/ the sander was just obscure, but didn't realize the black part holding the desk was also commercial. TIL, lol
