Thanks for all the above advice.
I did happened to have a gallon of spindle oil, so I used some of that.
Will change when stores open tomorrow.

Thanks,

I need to fill the bottom of my Juki sewing machine with oil (approx. 1
pint). Need it today (holiday) because my daughter is leaving for college
and I promised her that I would make a slip cover for her club chair.
Obviously, holiday and everybody is closed. Can I use the "way" oil that
I
use on my milling machine and lathe (required metal content). Could I use
the "way" oil and then replace it later?

Is there anything special about sewing machine oil? Local Ace is open but
I
don't want to buy 20 small tins of "3-in-1" oil.

Fast advice appreciated. Thank you!!
