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.

Sherline/Criterion Boring Head Arbors
Jeweler Burr Holder
These specialized holders were developed at the request of a jewelry design customer. Similar to our standard end mill holders, they feature a longer body with a tapered end, allowing better visibility of the cutter and improved access for working in cavities.
Each holder includes two Tommy bars and one 1/16" hex key.
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. Shop Ultra Tec Dops Features:

Horological Milling Machine Bushing and Depthing Accessory
This accessory was developed based on a concept shared by longtime Sherline user and Craftsman of the Year, Jerry Kieffer. The idea is to adapt a small milling machine for multiple clock and watch repair tasks - replacing the need for several specialized tools. It simplifies and enhances depthing by letting you position a gear exactly where it needs to be, check its mesh with a mating gear, and then precisely machine the bushing hole in the correct location.
With the Sherline mill, you can precisely position and align clock and watch components, allowing for highly accurate machining of bushing holes in both size and location. Once the machining is complete, the mill can also serve as a manual press for bushing insertion.
Used in combination with your Sherline mill, this accessory transforms your setup into a versatile three-in-one clock and watch repair machine - while retaining the full functionality of a precision milling machine.
The photos show the depthing attachment on a 5400 mill. If you want to use it on a 5000-series mill you will need to add the headstock spacer block.
