As I'm assembling my second 9" Model A, I was just wondering if anyone has a preference on anti-seize compound
on steel machine screws into cast iron. I am familiar with the aluminum, copper coat, Permatex (aircraft), and thread lock stuff. (I've got it all).
Specifically for the saddle to apron screws, QCGB, and lead screw bearing at the tailstock end...those that get a bit more torque than usual.
Seems there should be something on the threads. Thanks for your opinion.
