Re: Drilling Lubricant
I would strongly advise against using WD-40 as a cutting fluid.

WD-40 = flammable.

Most metal lube juices for cutting/milling is not flammable.

There is a whole science behind cutting fluids.
Don't use an all in one fluid like WD-40 as a cop out, or bad things may happen.

I was told we use something with the nickname gogo juice, but I'm not sure the real name.. Maybe Alumatap?? That's more for aluminum I'm guessing from the name though.
