First question: What is the best speed for drilling steel? Different thicknesses, different speeds? What about stainless or aluminum?
Second question: What is the best lube for cutting, tapping and drilling steel, aluminum, etc? I am guilty of grabbing the most convenient lube/oil (WD40, PB Blaster, 3 in 1, ATF, Gear oil, 10W30, etc). I know optimally I should use cutting oil, but is that any different from common lubes?
Save my bits, taps and blades...
