Common sense.

If it were common sense, you would have tried ATF as a cutting lube and decided on how it performs. It is not as if trying ATF is ooing to contaminate the lathe. No it is tradition in your case.

Why don't you just **** on it, Dan, and see how that performs?

And why buy ATF for an experiment when I already have real cutting oil that works?
