[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2554896, member: 7999"] With the Swiss screw machines you can't run water based coolant. Some of those use animal fats and can get nasty. We use a mineral based oil that has mild smell and never gets any worse. I'm so used to it now that I don't notice it. Nice thing about the mineral based oil is it is not caustic in any way and it doesn't have any environmental impacts. Petroleum based oils burn your skin. It's terrible when you are in it all the time. Anyway I think we have finally settled on an oil that we will stick with. Like everything else we have done it has been by trial and error. [/QUOTE]
