Plus lubing the rails? Don't they run on wheels with bearings, if so keeping the rails from corroding in this case would be my goal, otherwise lube would just attract dust. The entire machine mechanical needs to be cleaned up, I don't see how it can do any accurate work the way it is.Originally Posted by John Lifer

They don't run on wheels, but the railguides are chock full of ball bearings that do need lube--

my guess is his bearing block is loaded with chunks of rust flakes...

Was reading on my tablet and didn't look close at the pictures, but in looking at them closer, the belts are very worn. I'd bet it's jumping teeth, really doesn't look good.
