Description
Sherline 3009 – Lathe Tool Height
Gage
This steel gauge offers a simple way to assure the tip of your
cutting tool is set to the centerline height of the lathe. The
lower lip is for tools in the standard toolpost, while the upper
lip is used with the riser toolpost. Just set the gauge on the lathe
table and position it in front of the tool tip to check height. The
tool tip should just touch the bottom of the lip. It is much
quicker and easier than checking height against a center in the
headstock or tailstock as you don’t have to move the crosslide
table or tool post to a different position to check tool
height.
