Sherline 5000 Mill With 3 axis Ahha CNC Pro and RC500-3-6 Retrofit.

The mill has the standard DC motor (not the older universal mootr)
as well as a 30K rpm spindle (laminate trimmer) and a custom solid
aluminum mounting bracket that replaces the sherline spindle and is
easily changed with the same set screw arrangement as sherline.

Sherline 4500 Lathe
Craftsman 4 drawer tool box top with foam inserts with all the
necessary attachments:
Boring Head
Drill chucks
3 jaw lathe chuck
4 jaw lathe chuck
live center
Mill indexing attachment
horizontal milling base plate
slitting saw holder
Milling collet set with drawbar
Lathe Collet set with drawbar
Milling Vise
Drill bit set
and a ton of other stuff I don't have a list of yet.

The mill has a 3 axis Ahha RC500 drive box with (3) 6 amp driver
boards installed.

The mill as well as the lathe are mounted on nice flat steel plates
with foam rubber bottoms.

There is a Ahha CNC Pro IFB board installed in a Dell PC with the
software already configured for the mill. The system has a 15 inch
Compaq monitor and a keyboard.

I will also include a motor mount kit for the lathe and a set of
surplus pacific scientific double shaft stepper motors and dampers.
This machining package is sitting on a nice 5 or 6 foot 1.5" thick
maple topped steel framed work bench with enough room to mount the
pc and drive box on a bottom shelf.

The mill has a set of grifftek made xy leadscrew nuts and backlash
adjusters that last much longer than the standard sherline brass
nuts.

This system has been used as have most of the accessories but
everything is in good used condition and still has a lot of life
left in everything.

If anyone is interested in this complete package please respond by
email to bill@... before I put it all on ebay.

I will have pictures of everything as well as a movie of the mill
running.

Package price is $3495.00 (about the cost of the ahha package by
itself)
