Greetings, community.
Long story short; I had this amazing benchtop machine-tool since 8 years now and neglected it more than anything. The rarely-used lathe was sitting on a wood table all those years and that has inevitably worked out against of the lathe with time. Accuracy particularly. The bed now has a bent (belly?), and a twist in it. In other words it is good for decommissioning and retirement in it's current state. Talking about a nasty 0.25mm bent and 0.4mm twist here.
I've noticed that many lathe owners in the same situation simply have their bed ways re-grinded and this seems to give the tool a second-life! And I'd like to try that before looking at acquiring another C4.
My question; anyone of you did that before and/or have advice on how to take this forward?
