A recent ad got me to thinking. I've had a prejudice for years against plain bearings in lathes due to speed limitations in moderate to bigger sized lathes and fact that I don't have the skill to rescrape headstock bearings. Some have said for Schaublin lathes (ie 70 and 102) sized machines they prefer plain bearings. Opinions? Experience? Thanks.
