[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 1063469, member: 41122"] We dont rebuild or refurbish machines in house we only maintain them. We outsource heavy repairs and we ship the machines out that are really bad, which doesnt happen a lot. Im not sure why we dont send this one out for repair. Probably either the man never complains or management feels he is capable of performing his duties with the lathe as is. Funny thing is another man at our shop has the same machine at home in immaculate condition and offered to sell it for 20k, a downright steal, and they turned him down. Instead they dropped 700k for a live tool twin turret okuma for a relatively green machinist. Workshop politics, nothing like it. [/QUOTE]
