It's a little too far for me, unless someone wanted to help me ship it, but...

I just saw one in Facebook marketplace in the grand rapids michigan area yesterday but can't find it now. Must be it sold. I think they wanted $250 for it which sounds like a good price.

That's a slotter. I think the cherry head goes on the spindle for reaching hard to reach areas.

No, That is a cherrying head.

Janc's right, that's a cherrying head. See the handwheel on front ? It'll plumb wear your arm out. Made one part on one, never again. Machinists used to be tough

I had a BP slotting head on my Exacto. Hated that thing, lol. Bam!Bam!Bam!. All day long.Janc's right, that's a cherrying head. See the handwheel on front ? It'll plumb wear your arm out. Made one part on one, never again. Machinists used to be tough
Told a friend, "I'm all pissed off and I don't know why!"
End of the day, the skin would be raw on my right hand from grabbing the wheel to stop the stroke so I could index the part.
The slotting heads are more useful than the cherrying heads imo, but they suck to run...
