David, a quick question if I may?
I used to work in an engineering factory years ago and we used to use prarafin on the taps to aid cutting and clearing swarf, is this something you are familiar with?
I have a cutting oil which I use mostly on steel parts but I have often wondered if you can get away with using any oil, I know it is supposed to help the cutter “bite” and also to help cool the material and bit when cutting?
Paul.
