I found a picture of one that works like yours - scroll down a bit and you'll see several pictures of how it opens up -

Oh, thanks so much for finding that link! I knew it had to lift up somehow when the lid opened, but the mechanics of it eluded me. That made it so much clearer! I have one of the lifting arms plus the triangular pieces on the inside of the cabinet that bolt the machine frame to the cabinet, so there's a few pieces to source. As well as a machine of course! Luckily I have a father and a father-in-law that are very good at DIY and woodworking, so hopefully they can help me out there.
That cabinet you found is very similar too. You would think they would be contemporaneous. I've had someone suggest mine has a very Eastlake-y feel to it too. Thanks again!
