I'm not certain which lab used my lathe, but I believe it was in
Endicott, New York, if that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion about transmission fluid - I'll give it a try.

That's what the mfr. specs for the pumper oiler that does the cross
slide and carriage. It's already on the ways, I just juice up the
tailstock end with a pump oiler now and again.

When I was putting way oil on it, it would lock down *real*
tight after a few days if it didn't get used. Come to think
of it, I haven't *used* the pump oiler at work that has way
oil in it, in a couple of years.
