Note that the 8″ crosslide is .850″ thick instead of the standard 6″ crosslide, which is .625″ thick. This thicker crosslide is for customers wanting a sturdier table for milling on their lathe.
The CNC crosslide differs from the manual crosslide in that it has two additional holes on either side of the leadscrew hole for mounting a stepper motor mount.
Standard Sherline lathe tooling must be modified when this thicker crosslide is mounted on a Sherline lathe.
