I picked up an old, used oilstone at a flea market. Came in a metal box with
the label:
Norton Abrasives Combination Oilstone, part no." [can't make the rest out]
I'd like to use this for sharpening, dressing metal surfaces, etc. I
experimented with it and it seems to work better without using a lubricant
than with one (I used 3-in-1 oil). I searched a bit on Google and got
conflicting information. Some sites say use water, some say any non-drying
lubricant, others say no lubricant.
What does the list think? Thanks,
Gene
