    As a musician, I tend to use anti-lube (rosin, which is used to increase friction between the strings and bow hairs)

    Patternshop at a foundry I worked at would mix wax and grease by melting the wax, adding grease, then letting it cool, to put on screws to screw into pilot holes

    Atf for high carbon drywall knives. It helps on stainless as well but usually only get pitting on the actual blade edge

    I'm SO mad that I didn't know this before. In all my years watching maker videos and struggling with hand tools not ONCE was this mentioned.

      You do have to be careful using lubrication when doing joinery, especially on delicate pieces with little gluing surface. If any wax/oil remains, it can severely reduce adhesion of the glue or finish.
      As a full time luthier, my alternative is to go through the significant effort of polishing the contact surfaces of my tools. It works nearly as well, and eliminates any risk of contamination. Plus, it looks nice 😅
