Boxford AUD suds pump.

Hi,

Quick question and hopefully not too stupid, will the pump still work if I use cutting oil in the tank instead of suds?

You don't need suds unless you're taking heavy cuts in hard materials.
For general turning and threading steel use light engine oil put on with a flux brush.
For the best tuition on what you can do with your lathe,get on youtube and watch videos by "doubleboost" from the begining up to about 8 months ago when he changed his lathe.
