Sherline 5401 Sherline 12" deluxe XY base for model 5400 deluxe mill ( Metric 5411)
If you already own a vertical milling column (P/N 3050/3053, 3480/3485, or 3580/3585) for use with your lathe, but feel a sturdier base with a larger work area would be to your advantage, you may purchase the base of any of their vertical mills as an XY base.
Your older vertical milling column can be returned to the factory to be remachined and used with an XY base rather than purchasing the entire vertical milling machine. (Call for pricing) Vertical milling columns made after 1995 do not need to be modified. This combination saves you the amount of money included in the cost of the vertical mill for the column, but gives you same machine less headstock and motor/speed control. XY bases have also found their way into the industrial market and are used in various manufacturing setups. 12" XY base from model model 5410 X=9.0", Y=5.0"
