Elevating boring table for lathe cross slide.

Your description made me think of the elevating tables on woodworking planer/thicknessers. Mine has a single central column directly under the cutter block, an approach taken by a number of machines including, I think, the Stepperhead by Alan Jackson. Obviously, this is unlikely to work as a retrofit to a conventional lathe.
