I have encountered an interesting problem:

The Little Machine Shop Guide to Mini-mill recommends greasing the gear box
with Lubriplate 630-AA white lithium grease (NGLI 1, "plastic-friendly and
widely available").



Common or garden automobile wheel bearing grease or equivalent.


Or run the plastic gears dry.
