The Sherline Manual 14-Inch 8-Direction Benchtop Mill Package A (Metric) is a highly versatile milling machine designed for precision and flexibility. It offers an extensive range of movement, including the standard X-, Y-, and Z-axes, along with five additional directions. The headstock spindle can pivot up to 90 degrees in either direction, allowing for drilling or milling from virtually any angle. The column bed can also rotate side-to-side up to 90 degrees, and a special knuckle enables the column to pivot front to rear. The column base's 'ram' design allows for side-to-side pivoting, and the column cap can be loosened to move the ram in and out with over five inches of travel. This multitude of movement options makes the machine suitable for a wide range of machining tasks within its size capabilities.

The machine's 14-inch long base enhances Y-axis travel by an additional two inches compared to other models, making it ideal for those seeking to expand their miniature machining capabilities. Despite its compact size, this benchtop mill is capable of producing high-quality precision parts from materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. It combines the convenience of a desktop-sized machine with the precision and accuracy typically found in full-sized machines.

Included in the Package A are several essential tools and accessories, such as a step block hold-down set, a Sherline hex T-driver, a center drill set, a fly cutter with a carbide bit, a mill collet set with a drawbolt, an end mill set, an end mill holder, a milling vise, and a Sherline Accessories Shop Guide. These components ensure that users have everything needed to begin their machining projects.

The machine is equipped with a powerful 90V DC motor and an electronic speed controller, providing a wide range of spindle speeds. The base and table feature laser-engraved scales for precise measurements, and oil reservoirs on the axes help maintain lubrication for critical parts. Additionally, a brass leadscrew cover protects the Y-axis leadscrew from debris.

Note: Ensure proper safety measures are followed during operation to prevent accidents or injuries.
