Cover hinges

The article on home made penetrating fluid was originally in the April/May 2007 edition of Machinists Workshop magazine. It was later mentioned in Farm Show. I have mixed up the 50/50 mix of ATF and acetone and it works well but you need to keep it in a tight container or the acetone wll evaporat off.

We here near Milwaukee WI have 2 HF stores to tempt us. They have small polyethylene squeeze bottles with metal tubes & nozzle tips which can be turned to close the spout. I keep several way & spindle lube as well as the acetone/ATF stuff that I intend to mix up come Spring. The spout tubes can be bent to personal taste. They are also available from HF on line.
