Having just produced a shoebox full of Al swarf, cutting dry, I am abashed. But "suds" is reputed to get into felt slide wipers, and rust intermittently used machines, so I've never used that. An attempt to use neat oil resulted in gluggy heaps of aluminium porridge encumbering the tool. Is thinner oil the answer?
