The Sherline Lathe Multi-Direction Vertical Milling Column DRO Inch offers a versatile solution for enhancing the capabilities of a lathe by transforming it into an 8-direction mill. This innovative column allows for comprehensive movement, including swinging, rotating, tilting, and moving in and out, enabling machining or drilling from virtually any angle. It is designed to be mounted on a Model 4000 lathe, providing a cost-effective approach to achieving the functionality of a full mill without the need for an additional headstock and motor unit.
The column features a new oil reservoir on the saddle nut, ensuring the leadscrew remains well-lubricated, which enhances the longevity and performance of the equipment.
