Important Update Regarding Sherline Products
October 20, 2026
We would like to share an encouraging development regarding the future of Sherline Products.
We are currently in discussions with an American manufacturer regarding the potential purchase of Sherline’s intellectual property and remaining inventory. The goal of this proposed acquisition is to preserve and revitalize the Sherline brand while providing continued availability of replacement parts, accessories, and machines for our valued customers.
As these discussions progress, we have agreed to temporarily suspend accepting new orders, effective October 19, 2026. This will allow us to preserve our remaining inventory while negotiations are underway.
Although no final agreement has been reached, we are hopeful that this opportunity will provide a positive path forward for the Sherline name and the customers who have trusted our products for more than five decades.
We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued loyalty during this transition. We will share additional information as soon as it becomes available.
Our greatest hope is that the Sherline legacy of quality, precision, and American craftsmanship will continue for generations to come.

    24″ Machined Lathe Base Assembly
    The machined base replaces our current cast base for our leadscrew lathes. The design is based on our ball screw lathe base. The base is wider for better stability and more rigid than our cast base. It is interchangeable with older 17" benchtop lathes and is a replacement part for the old 24" cast base (P/N 44010)

    17″ Benchtop Lathe

    Our benchtop lathe offers 17″ between centers, more than double the 8″ available on the tabletop model, giving you significantly more clearance. This extra space becomes especially useful when a part is held in a chuck and the tailstock also holds a larger drill chuck with a long bit, where a shorter bed might fall short.

    With the additional 9″ of center-to-center distance, along with adjustable “zero” handwheels and a rocker-style tool post, this lathe brings more flexibility and capability - a worthwhile upgrade over the shorter version.

    Although compact in size, our 17″ benchtop lathe still delivers the precision and accuracy expected from a full-size machine. It’s capable of turning wood and plastic, but is also rigid enough to handle aluminum and steel parts - making it suitable not just for hobby use, but for precision metalwork too.

    Designed as a desktop-friendly machine, it packs full-size performance into a smaller footprint, offering a practical balance of convenience and capability for small shops or home workshops.

    Features:
    • Adjustable resettable “zero” handwheels: 2.5″ (63 mm) on the leadscrew, 2″ (51 mm) on both the crosslide feed screw and the tailstock - each handwheel has laser-engraved aluminum handwheel collars
    • Turns parts up to 3.5″ (90 mm) diameter over the bed and 1.75" (45 mm) over the carriage without riser blocks; with riser blocks, up to 6″ over the bed
    • 17″ (430 mm) bed provides extended travel for longer workpieces
    • 6″ (152 mm) crosslide for increased tool reach
    • Precision-machined dovetail slides with adjustable gibs and backlash
    • High-accuracy spindle and headstock used across all Sherline lathes
    • Spindle speed: continuously variable from 70 to 2,800 RPM via electronic control (no belt changes required). A second pulley position offers more torque at low RPM if needed
    • Rocker-style tool post (replacing the standard post used on shorter lathes)*
    • Comes with pulleys, drive belt, faceplate, lathe dog, two dead centers, three hex keys, rocker tool post, a sharpened high-speed steel cutting tool, a grounded 3-wire power cord (8 ft), and instruction manual
    • Compatible with Sherline’s full line of accessories
    • Made in the USA
    * Not included with lathe without motor and speed control This 17″ benchtop lathe gives you the precision and robustness of a larger machine in a compact, desktop-sized package. The extended center distance, adjustable zero handwheels, rocker tool post, and variable-speed electronic motor make it a versatile choice for turning plastics, wood, aluminum, or steel. It’s ideal for small shops, hobbyists, or anyone needing a reliable lathe for detailed or small-batch work — with the convenience of a machine that doesn’t take up an entire shop floor.
