Hi,
I have been doing a lot of printing this year. I have worn grooves in the Y axis rods and have now fried the bearings. I have been lubricating the stock bearings with light weight sowing machine oil. Since it is time to replace parts, I'd like to upgrade them too. I'd love any feedback you might have on what works and what doesn't.

Thank you
