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.

Jeweler DOP Holder

Sherline Products, in collaboration with Bryan D. Drummond (Gem Cutter & Goldsmith), has designed this DOP Holder specifically for securely holding lapidary DOP sticks during gemstone cutting. If you already own one of our machines, the holder is designed to thread directly onto our ¾-16 headstock spindle nose. It will also be an essential accessory for our upcoming gem cutting machines.

Compatible with Ultra Tec® Dops

This DOP Holder has been precisely engineered with tolerances and a keyed dop system designed for compatibility with Ultra Tec® brand dops which are used on their faceting machines. Many gem cutters use Ultra Tec equipment for flat faceting, and the keyed dop feature provides secure alignment and ease of use, making it a valuable addition to your setup.

Sherline does not manufacture dops, but they can be purchased directly from Ultra Tec. Like Sherline, Ultra Tec products are high-quality and Made in the USA.
