The Sherline Manual 8-Inch Tabletop Lathe with Zero Adjustable Handwheels Package C (Inch) is an advanced version of the standard Model 4000-series lathe, featuring two zero adjustable handwheels on the crosslide and leadscrew. These handwheels allow users to reset to a zero reading at any time, facilitating precise adjustments and reducing the likelihood of mathematical errors. This feature, typically found on larger, more expensive machines, enhances the precision of this compact lathe.

This tabletop lathe is capable of turning parts up to 3.5 inches in diameter over the bed or up to 1.88 inches over the carriage without the use of riser blocks. With an optional riser block, it can handle parts up to 6 inches in diameter. The lathe provides 8 inches of space between centers, making it suitable for crafting small, precision components. Its electronic speed control offers a continuously variable speed range from 70 to 2,800 RPM, eliminating the need for belt changes and providing additional torque at low RPM when necessary.

Constructed in the USA, this lathe is designed for producing high-quality precision parts from materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. Despite its desktop size, it delivers the precision and accuracy of a full-size machine. The C Package includes a variety of accessories, such as a 2.5-inch 3-jaw self-centering chuck, a 1/4-inch tailstock drill chuck with key, steady rest, live center, compound slide, and a rear mount cutoff tool and holder. Additionally, it comes with a 1/4-inch high-speed steel 3-piece cutting tool set, a Sherline 5/32-inch T-driver, a 3-piece center drill set, and a Sherline Accessories Shop Guide Book, along with a thread cutting attachment.
