MOTM

With all due respect to your expirience, I would personally recommend
against the practice, at least in a non-professional environment.  It
would be too easy for someone without proper training to not think about
their lube if they switched to a harder metal-- and no one wants to meet
the sausage monster.

Mark,

Although drilling steel and iron may cause sparking, we are talking 
aluminum here. With proper lube, including kerosine, I have never, in 30

years, seen a spark off of aluminum. Kerosine is TOTALLY inappropriate 
for drilling other metals. Use any decent lube oil for steel or other 
metals.
