I have an older Sherline lathe. If I buy a new Sherline lathe will my old accessories still work?
Yes. Part of the design criteria for any change or advancement made on Sherline tools is that they still work with all the accessories we have made in the past. This also means that if you buy a used Sherline tool from a friend, all our new accessories will work on it, no matter when it was made. The only exception would be when an advancement eliminates the need for a particular accessory, such as the new DC motor’s greater torque and speed range eliminating the need for the slow speed attachment or the new tailstock design eliminating the need for a tailstock spindle extender.
