You are just trying to lubricate the piece being cut. I've used motor oil, and I've used WD40 as well. Any oil is better than cutting dry. ----- Original Message ----- From: Shane Hecker To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, June 26, 2009 9:41 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] thread cutting question
Is there an alternative to thread cutting oil that can be used for thread cutting? I know you can get thread cutting oil, but it can be somewhat expensive, especially if you go with the Rigid brand. There's a couple stores that sell thread cutting oil in my area, but they are not located close by. However, Heb and an auto parts store are within walking distance, so was hoping to find something I could get from one of those places. Thanks for any info.
