The Sherline CNC-Ready Mill Upgrade Kit for 5810, X Axis Motor Mount (Metric) enables the transformation of any existing Sherline vertical mill to a CNC-ready machine. This conversion process involves the precise drilling and tapping of several holes to securely attach the stepper motor mounts. The kit provides drill blocks that are affixed to the appropriate table or bed using an existing hole, facilitating the drilling of two new holes with the block serving as a guide. Once the holes are tapped, the new mount is installed, and for the mill column, a new leadscrew is also required. Comprehensive instructions accompany the kit to guide users through the conversion process.

This upgrade kit is designed to prepare the machine for the attachment of stepper motors, allowing for CNC control through a system that the user must provide. The kit includes essential components such as stepper motor mounts, a CNC Z-axis screw, coupling preload nuts, stepper motor preload bearings, CNC couplings, and templates for bed and slide bushings, along with the necessary screws for motor mount attachment.
