Sherline Catalog Describes Company's Machines FARM SHOP Tools 25-1-5 Last issue's metal-working story (Make Your Own Replacement Parts) sparked a lot of interest among do-it-yourselfers. There's a lot of interest in new mini-lathes and mills but making precision parts out of metal is not an easy task. It takes good equipment, a willing-ness to experiment, and a lot of good information.
Sherline Products was one of the companies featured in the report. Sherline is owned by Joe Martin, who is a skilled metal worker himself besides being a manufacturer, so he understands the needs of both home shop machinists and of commercial production facilities. Martin and Sherline provide detailed information needed by beginners and experts alike, in addition to selling a complete line of home shop metal-working tools.
The company has an information-filled 47-page, 4-color catalog which describes in detail the company's machines and gives specific examples of how they're being used. Martin has also written a book called Tabletop Machining which is a practical guide to "real world" machining.
Sherline sells a number of other books, videos, and magazines for home machinists. Visit Sherline on the web at www.sherline.com or contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Sherline Products, 3235 Executive Ridge, Vista, Calif. 92083 (ph 800 541-0735).
