mumbles:
snip I would like to make a test with rags soaked with oil and see how
long it would take before it catches fire. I'm wondering which oil is
generating the most heat (tung oil, linseed oil, danish, etc.) and how
long it takes, based on your experience (if you had any), to get the
smoke or an actual flame. snip

OK, so go ahead and do it.

This stuff has been beat to death, here and elsewhere. All you
have to do is check.

As for asking here, my rule is, in this order:
1. Check every where I can.
2. Ask my mother.
3. Ask here.
Always worked so far.

It's not hard, if you get your mind right.
