[Spridgets] Stainless Steel - magnetic or not

[Rick Fisk]

Interesting video.  My stainless steel refridgertor must be enclosed in ferritic stainless because the door is covered with magnets.  When I was still working I frequently had to drill and tap holes in stainless steel.  Stainless just laughs at normal cutting oil and many dull and broken drill bits resulted.  Then I discovered something that works amazingly well - Dawn brand liquid dish detergent works beautifully as a cutting oil for stainless steel.
