Way oil ISO68 substitute with ISO100 teflon?
My early 1900s lathe says, “Use good grade, light motor oil”. But this post isn’t just for me. That SuperLube representative stated their iso100 with Teflon is used by many of its customers for ways, and so I wanted to verify the equivalence to Vactra2 or Vacuoline1409. Even though my manual... -

Way oil ISO68 substitute with ISO100 teflon?
Ok, thank you. I just wanted to clean all the build-up on this new-to-me mini machine. I didn’t want to spend a lot of time searching for, ordering and waiting to get Vactra, since I already have this oil with Syncolon sitting here that I use on everything. I don’t want to start cleaning... -

I need help identifying this lathe, please
I fixed the link. It says page not found above but it works and won't make you log in to see photos. Photobucket is having problems. I've reset my password thrice and it still says invalid password. Sorry. Flickr: Page Not Found- kbrawlz

I need help identifying this lathe, please
I need help to identify this old manual engine lathe I just bought. The only info I got from the seller was he bought it used and it was 20". I'm not sure where to measure from to give an accurate size. It appears to a 3" 3-jaw. The motor and brackets were replaced and it didn't come with the...- kbrawlz
