I did a search, but it didn't bring anything up for some reason. I figured this had been discussed before, but perhaps its so elementary that it's not worthy of a thread. Regardless, now there is one, haha.
Have any of you guys replaced the accordion style covers on your machines? I'd like to go to a straight cover, both for better coverage as well as easier access to the ways. As it is right now, the accordion style doesn't cover the entire surface and it makes it difficult to get under there to keep everything oiled properly.
Are there any recommendations for way covers? If I happen to make my own, what would be the best material to use?
