    I can knock up captives in aluminium if anyone is after a set. Will need dimensions of your existing ones as a base. Drop me a pm if interested

    I've only ever seen it on industrial type lathes etc.

    Its soluble cutting oil. You can use kero in an old sauce bottle and trickle it on ir sone people use WD40 if you dont have a coolant system on yiur machine. Parting off requires it as does rurning of a fee materials depending on the tooling you use.

    Thanks mate. I've always found WD40 a bit too thin and it seems to evaporate off pretty quickly.
    I'll have a look into the cutting oil.

    Should be able to get it from most engineering places like gasweld and blackwoods

    Just get the pukka legit cutting fluid. It makes for a better job and longer lasting tools. http://www.cedray.com.au/ this place in silverwater is the bomb ive found since i started working at my engineering internship. Also Austain fasteners if you need stainless bits and bobs. If using hand tools and drilling etc use some thicker Metal Cutting Compound, it applies like a grease and provides the lubrication and cooling you need.
