Sherline Model 4500A lathe

Sherline tools fill the gap between makeshift hand tools and expensive professional equipment. They are capable of producing a great variety of machined parts. Accessories are available which allows the making of almost any type of machined item, the size of the part being the only limitation.

Sherline equipment and accessories incorporate many features found only in the best production machines. For example, the lathe spindle and the milling spindle both utilize lifetime lubricated bearings with adjustable pre-load for maximum stiffness. Both the lathe and milling machine feature fully dovetailed machine slides with adjustable gibs to give precise adjustment and maximum rigidity. Machining accuracies of one thousandth of an inch can be easily obtained. In fact, the hand wheels are precisely laser engraved in graduations of .001 inch.

The machines are USA made in a modern factory in Vista, California, north of San Diego.
