    Hello NikosR.
    I have already put photos of my machine on the 'Introduction / Welcome sub-forum a week or so ago.
    I'm attaching some photos of the gantry / Y-Axis lead screw to show how the worst part is, and the parts I have attacked with a brass wire brush on my cordless drill. A 'before-and-after' view.
    The last photo is to give an idea of scale. The gantry is around 80cm wide, approximately (not measured it but the bed is 70cm wide).
