MSC, J&L, KBC, Travers, Quad Tool, and all the other machine shop
supply places have it. It is under $10 a gallon. Some people say don't
use it on lathes, as it causes chips to stick to the ways. It is the
recommended lube for milling machines. ISO VG 68 Way Oil is
similar in viscosity to SAE 20 W oil, but has a sticky property added.
