    A little while back a guy named Rand posted an inquiry to us to try
    out some "grease" or lubricant he invented. I asked him to send me a
    sample. 

    I've been using it for a while for various things and I must say I'm
    impressed. I tested it on a drill bit. You know how when you drill in
    gold or silver and those little chips jump out of the hole? With this
    stuff a long curled wire comes out instead. And there's no chattering
    like the sound you hear just before your bit snaps off and gets stuck
    in the hole. I've used it in my various bur work. It really works
    well. 

    I also used it to lube my saw blades. I work exclusively with 8/0
    blades. This lube was like magic! It helped me cut faster and much
    straighter. The only problem I have with it is in applying it to my
    sawblades. Its texture is like warm butter so I find myself using my
    fingers to apply it to the blade. This can be a problem if one is in
    a hurry as those sawblades are rather sharp. 

    I also use it on my drawplate. It doesn't rub off like any
    conventional waxs and has a nice odor. It's also fairly white so it
    doesn't stain. I've tested it as a lube for bright-cutting and
    engraving and pave', and it worked like magic, but I use a GraverMax
    so YMMV. 

    It looks like saddle-soap and smells like Johnson's Paste Wax, but
    it's really better than that bur-lube they sell and I'm gonna go
    ahead and buy a big tub of it.
