Okay so chirping and sometimes what sounds like a belt squeak and maybe even bearing skate noise has developed and seems like my practically new vf4ss is chattering more and more. I’ve been noticing wear marks near the gauge line but didn’t think much of it. Well then I started to notice vertical stripes on my holder tapers so I tried to blue my holder but all I have is that quick drying stuff and it’s not ideal but it’s all I have right now. So while I clean my spindle everyday when I shut it down I’ve never looked up into it till tonight and what I found makes me want to throw up,literally. The spindle taper looks exactly like what you would want on dovetail mating surfaces. It looks like fish scales. Also the wear patterns im seeing on my tools, the scratches and vertical stripes are right there plain as day. I’ve just now started to really use my rotary a lot and it’s making what I can only describe is a grinding noise and the oil sight glass looks like glitter floating in it. I know what I need to do, call haas but I’m really starting to feel like I got the lemon of lemons. I mean even the accessory is bad. I’d absolutely love this machine if I all this wasn’t going on and I will give hass a chance to make it right for sure but I want to hear from y’all what y’all think when you see these pictures I post below? Makes sense now how I can’t get rid of the steps at cutter overlaps.
