| VPI bearing oil/grease? When I used to work in a machine shop (college job, many lifetimes ago) the guy responsible for the high precision lathes used to use STP Oil Treatment to lube his machine. Other freinds of mine who are shooters use the same stuff to lube their re... | |
| Peachtree Audio iDecco & iPod/iPhone Compatibility My 2 cents worth:1- As your experience shows, the iPhone is not an iPod and works like crap for anything except MP3 files.
