Another watchmakers lathe

Did you here about a fluid for the slides as well? I heard about using Shell Tonna S fluid for the slides
 
Hi Brento
no I haven’t I just been using the oil I had for my IME lathe a thin synthetic oil but I will google it.
Thanks Dell
 
Ive seen that oil is what they use for the slides so im thinking of trying to get both.
 
Hi Brento
have a look at this I think it’s probably a little over the top for us it’s designed for big machines by the look of it.
