- Sherline 8-Direction Lathe Vertical Milling Column Upgrade Instructions
- Enhances vertical milling with multi-direction capabilities
- Secures with set screw for stability and precision
- Matches Model 2000 mill for seamless transition
- Expands motion for complex machining tasks
- Ideal for executing intricate designs and patterns
The Sherline 8-Direction Lathe Vertical Milling Column Upgrade Instructions provide guidance for enhancing an existing vertical milling column to enable multi-directional machining capabilities. This upgrade involves removing the existing column bed from the old rectangular column base and reinstalling it onto the column ram of a new, round column base. The round column base features a key slot that fits over the headstock attachment pin on the lathe and is secured with a set screw, ensuring stability and precision during operations. This upgrade is designed to match the column used on the Model 2000 mill, offering a seamless transition for users familiar with that model.
The standard and deluxe vertical milling columns offer Z-axis travel and headstock rotation, but the multi-direction column significantly enhances functionality by adding four additional directions of movement. This expanded range of motion allows for sophisticated milling operations, making it an ideal choice for users seeking to perform complex machining tasks. The upgrade is particularly beneficial for those who require precision and versatility in their milling processes, as it provides the capability to execute intricate designs and patterns with ease.
Note: Ensure all components are securely fastened to prevent operational hazards during use.
