Lard oil is the clear, colourless oil pressed from pure lard after it has been crystallized, or grained, at 7° C (45° F). It is used as a lubricant, in cutting oils, and in soap manufacture. The solid residue, lard stearin, is used in shortenings…
Hey thanks for clearing that up! I've actually never found a good explanation of what lard oil even is. As for me, I am indeed using bacon drippings. Actually I think my latest batch was from the New Years pork roast. I filtered it through some paper towels. I was kind of worried about the salt content but now I don't think it's a problem, in fact it may be why my cutting lard never seems to go rancid...
"The tails follow" is the recommendation for link belt rotation.
In that case I think I did it right. The links kind of look like arrows I guess and they point WITH direction of rotation.
The fun of sheltering in place is about to begin. AR15 barrels R Us. The junior shooters will have plenty to burn in the next couple of years.
What all you gotta do to 'em? Chamber? Profile outside? They look pretty chunky for AR barrels!
