Looks great and has held up fine (5+ years). I have a Delta (Rockwell)
scroll saw and belt sander from that era. No lube ports on the sander,
saw has an oil reservoir right under the table.


Wood magazine did a test between several different methods/products for
rust removal and prevention.

You may find that some of the newer products will save you some time and
energy, as WD-40 and Johnson's both did the worst at their respective tasks.
