Default waxing the tailpiece?

In article , says...

I "solved" the problem by waxing it. That way I could tighten it up, yet
not get friction.

Is this a reasonable approach, or is there a better way? Thanks.


The guy who sold his lathe to me gave me a bottle of Johnson's baby oil with
it. Couple of drops on the tailstock; works a treat. Had no problems with
staining so far.
