Everyone knows you use oil to lubricate your drill bit when drilling metal to keep the bit cool, or the saw blade when cutting metal. Had an old machinist show me using get this; glass cleaner! It dries with no muss, not leaving the big wet mess. I like how it doesn't make a the shavings stick together. Give it a shot on your next fabrication job. Lot cheaper too! 89 SWB, V-6 5SPD, OME Shocks, 16.5X37's, 2"BL, SR axle, Gen2 brakes, Lincoln w/Superwinch Re: Cutting tools lubrication [Re: Mudraider] #1072942 09/10/14 08:31 PM Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 6,134 Gilbert AZ, US. TOASTY Trail Leader Another OG trick i learned from an old timer is using silicone RTV for drilling sheetmetal inside your car. The silicone lubes the bit and the RTV collects the shavings, actually works pretty well. 1999 Montero SAS'd on Kings and stuff 1998 Montero trying to get a V8 Swapped Moderated by  4x4Wire, PHIL_  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Homepage Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts
