I use a horse laxative mineral oil from a Company out of California ( Santa Cruz), Amazon sells it now and free shipping with Amazon prime...
Best prices for a case of four gallons, less than $60.00 a case ..

I use stellar lubricants, a lapidary oil. "Mineral oil" is often confused as something other than petroleum, but it comes from the same separating and refining process that gives us thick tarlike gear oils and extremely thin kerosene or gasoline. Mineral oil is merely a trade name, no minerals involved in it's production, just a highly refined oil. At the same viscosity, tech grade (veterinary and cosmetics), food grade, and medical grade are identical. The grading and cost differences are due to the testing and certifications and their cost. Stellar is stellar Snd it smells good |

San Juan Ranch Santa Cruz mineral oil light for horses is about $70 for 4 gallons. Check shipping! I use this oil in my 14" saw with no problems. I also ventilate well for health reasons so as not to breath the mist into my lungs. I use this oil in my trim saw because it has less odor and is an easy cleanup.

I also use the horse laxative when I’ve had lots of dairy and meat. Straight from the saw. Works wonders.

Amazon has the same oil and company and its a bit cheaper, free shipping with "Prime".. |
