  • Is this 1018 steel ?were can i ge it from?

  • @ljwartuk

    It's just bright flat steel bar, you can buy off cuts on ebay

  • @ultimatehandyman WHATS THE BEST WAY TO CUT SHAPES OUT OF IT?

  • @ljwartuk

    It depends what tools you have available.

    If you have a pillar drill and some files you can cut out almost any shape by chain drilling and then filing.

  • can I use any kind of oil for lubrification, like motor oil or something similar?

  • @paduroiul

    Yes, any kind of oil is better than using nothing.

    You can even use water
