Very nice but I think that I'd have used a wax lubricant on wood

(By co-incidence I've just returned from a lecture to find the wife had 'lubricated' her 'wool carder' with 3 in 1 oil as it was stiff. Actual cause was wool caught in one of the belts, and now the timber sides that the axles run in are a nice source of marks on the wool
