I have both, and both have their place.... my question is, I have the sherline flycutter and boring head, and am not real crazy about their performance on the...
... If a MT #1 shank is bigger than .375" & the shank is long enough for a EM holder should work fine as Sherline uses 12L14 or 1018 for most of their Steel...
What about getting an MT adapter sleeve. I know they come in one size jumps, such as 2MT/3MT, but don't know if any are available that jump two sizes. In...
I am in the market for a CNC bench top mill. The construction of CNC mini mills such as the MAXNC and Tiag is a little "light weight" as compared to the...
rigidity and power are my guess.... don't get me wrong, i love the Sherline, but even their own literature that came with the machine says it's really not...

I had both a Sherline lathe and mill, but ended up selling them to purchase the minimill and lathe because most things I make are a little big for the smaller...
Wow, I replaced my steel gibbs with some brass ones from REX and the difference is unbelievable. Not only can the adjustments be tighter yet deliver smooth...
The previous post wasn't a recommendation to buy gibbs. Sorry 'bout that. I was just trying to point out that it appears that the factory ones are pretty much...
