Refined lines on Y axis smooth rods

Hi,

I today (after 14 days from building) find out on my Y axis are refined lines from bearings. See attached photo, is that right and should be? Or I have find out new smooth rods and have too much tight bearings on rods?

When I touch it with fingers, I feed that line is already refined in smooth rod :-/

Hello Jindřich!

I would buy (or use the guarantee at Prusa) new bearings and use a sharpening stone on the rods and smooth out the edges that you may feel with a finger or a nail. The bearings may be defective or there may be some debris from the production of them.
