could this be used as a oil cutting fluid when cutting stone with the dremel 4000 mini saw Thanks

You could but you'd be better off flooding it with water. Tile saws have a pump and tank that recirc the water, you could rig something similar and water is a lot cheaper.

Sorry that I don't know the specifics of a Dremel 4000 but it's been my experience that you need a diamond blade to cut stone or ceramic - my masonry saw uses water to cool the blade. I suppose that oil might work but would produce more mess than water. I'd do a bit of research on the internet - I'm sure there will be lots of information on cutting stone, hopefully some info with respect to rotary tools like the Dremel. Good Luck.

The chain oiler works well on this little unit. I even use the same oil (standard bar oil) in the saw that I use on my gas saw and no problem. This Makita electric saw is well worth the money!

this tool was designed to be used with a dremel. if your dremel can hold a 1/4" drill bit, then yes

I ordered the recommended Makita Oil but I think the hole is to small and gets clogged by the saw dust.

Don't know but I live it and have used it PLENTY!! I make custom knives and after burning up 5 Dremel 4000's this has outlasted 3 more I would have had to buy and burn up.

I would soak a new stone in water and use that to sharpen kitchen knives with. I bought this oil to use with a stone to sharpen an axe and will be using it on wood but your knife will be cutting food so I would use water for your stone.

I would not recommended it. At best it would be a SLOW process with lots of cutting oil. For that type of work you should get a full size drill press. About 1/8" is about all the steel I would try. This is designed more for small light metals and wood. The type of work jewelers, dental techs and crafter do.

You probably could but it wouldn't be my first choice. Something like the DMT diamond hone would probably work better. Works very well for knives though.

I don't know about "have to" but I choose not too since I won't have oil with me when I need to sharpen my axe in the field. I have been using water with no ill effects, so far. I know some stones are marked as requiring oil and some state they can be used with water. But they all say not to mix the two. So if you start with oil, then stay with oil and if you start with water then stay with water. Lastly I am making my decision because if I can sharpen an axe in the field with an actual stone from the creek then I assume I can use this in the same way. Your mileage may vary and you should follow the manufacturers guidelines to be safe. Hope that helps.

Any oil for chain saw is fine. I got mine from amazon when I ordered the chain saw.

In my opinion no. With this thick of a bit you would likely burn out your dremel motor and it may not drill perfectly straight.

The saw is meant to be used as a handheld dry saw. I've used it to cut ceramic tile. It works great, but is very loud when cutting and makes lots of dust. I don't know of anyway to make it work like a wet saw using water to cool and lubricate the blade. Doing so might be dangerous, anyway -- perhaps even producing electrical shock or shorting out the motor.

I use the gray stone for oil, I think the white stones are finer. Try ice water and the white stone

It is a high quality lubricating oil. It will protect a blade from rusting. I have also used it for firearms and fishing gear.

Yes. Works well. Flow reduced by maybe 25% with water. Oil may be more do to viscosity.

This is a very thin solution , it appears like a solvent mostly , like I said is good probably for micro mechanic like watches , I used to synthetic car oil for my folding knives. Please check on you tube some reviews of this to get yourself more clear about . Good luck

Primarily tung oil is used for wood, however it is a sealer and I would think you could use it on stone. It will probably give the stone a rich wet look. With a satin finish. I've never used it on stone personally. All I can say further is to try it.
