The Hammond oil for mechanical tone generators is a highly refined
wax-free ultra-light turbine-type oil.  It can be used for _lots_ of
other applications (even for clock oil).

_Just remember,_ it doesn't stay on long without a wick because of its
light weight.  Also it tends to be used up a little quicker.  Just be
careful !  I don't know if I would use it for a motor that generates
much heat.
