I know the bar oil as way oil has been beat to death on numerous bulletin boards over the years. I post this as heads up for some one new to the game, not to stir up old wars. Bar oil does nothing to address stick slip. Works great to lube a moving chain in a filthy environment. Not the same situation of sliding surfaces on a mill or lathe with wipers. Vactra has proven it self for years as being effective at preventing stick slip. Not saying you could not be happy with bar oil, but for a little more money you can use a product that is much better suited for the job on a lathe , mill, or shaper.

Amazon carries a lot of inexpensive machinist tooling and has free shipping.I recently purchased a MT2 live center for <$30.Hi guys and gals
I finally finished my Cast Iron Maiden Heave 10 and I need a live center #2 mt I had one that was about $15.00 bought about 5 years ago I have been " Out of Lathe" for about 3 years due to my lathe being torn apart and then a bit of Personal body repair ( intestinal. followed by a Bad leg blood clot) but I am good as new ( sort of....at 74 nothing is new any more) I can't remember any of the suppliers of discount ( and usually Chinese) tooling for us cheap & poor hobbiest folks . My computer hard drive went to lunch during my down time and I lost the information of the folks I dealt with years 5 years ago except for Joe Bergamo at Plazamachinery) My savior during the restoration of my heavy 10
any leads would be greatly appreciated
