Hi, we have a Nexus 250 M/S we have had since new 2004 that has run 2 shifts since then. It has made the same part for the entire time. We had the turrent off to fix the index ring and drive gear once and some minor other items replaced on it. I removed the tool holders we were not using to lighten up the turrent and tried to balance the weight on it to help the index gears not to move so much weight. We are machining steel tube and hold +/-.0005 on our bore all day long with minor offsets. My question is has anyone run their lathe to the point of a rebuild because it is just worn out?
