• Sherline Manual 8-Inch Tabletop Lathe with Zero Adjustable Handwheels (Metric) (EU)
• Features zero adjustable handwheels
• Enables precise adjustments
• Turns parts up to 6 inches with riser block
• Offers 70-2,800 RPM speed range
• Made in the USA for quality precision

The Sherline Manual 8-Inch Tabletop Lathe with Zero Adjustable Handwheels (Metric) (EU) is an advanced version of the standard Model 4000-series lathe, featuring two zero adjustable handwheels on the crosslide and leadscrew. These handwheels allow users to reset to a zero reading at any time, facilitating precise adjustments and reducing the likelihood of mathematical errors. This feature, typically found on larger, more expensive machines, enhances the precision capabilities of this compact lathe.

This tabletop lathe is capable of turning parts up to 3.5 inches in diameter over the bed or up to 1.88 inches over the carriage without the use of riser blocks. With an optional riser block, it can handle parts up to 6 inches in diameter over the bed. The lathe provides 8 inches of space between centers, making it suitable for crafting small, precision components. The electronic speed control offers a continuously variable speed range from 70 to 2,800 RPM, eliminating the need for belt changes and allowing for a second pulley position to provide additional torque at lower RPMs.

Constructed in the USA, this lathe is designed for those requiring a mini lathe that can produce high-quality precision parts. Despite its compact size, it is robust and accurate enough to cut materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. The lathe's desktop size does not compromise its ability to deliver full-size machine precision and accuracy.

Note: Ensure proper handling and operation to avoid injury or damage.
