Cutting oil

Post by Justin »

Need to get some cutting oil so that I don't destroy Zoso's reamer tomorrow when I reinstall my tie rod. Home Depot doesn't carry it, Ace's is supposed to be really bad. Any suggestions about where to pick up some cutting oil of decent quality, ideally in the northern half of the metro area?

Also, the trick with the reamer is to go very very slow. I've had better results from using a ratchet by hand than a drill.

Yep. Seems the smaller bits >3/8" or so do fine with higher speeds, but anything above that and I slow it down!

Thanks for the advice and offers, guys. I was able to find some while I was down in Denver today. Hope to get it done today or tomorrow.
