old car oil

[Sunna]

most garages wil give you their old car oil for free, they have to pay for it to be taken away.
can you think of anything else we could use it for, protecting wood ect [video=youtube]http:/CDu0lS5XMD0[/video]

I know someone who mixed it with creosote for their wooden fences, made it go further and made it darker.

An owld gimmer near me paints his fence with it, seems to work a treat and doesn't smell too bad after a while.

Good for burning in smudge pots. A cotton rag stuck into the old can of oil will burn with that sooty apocalyptic flicker we all know and love.

Also still good for dirty lubrication uses, like farm gear and bike parts, exposed gearing in winches and general situations where one is just pouring the oil over the part.

If one happens to own an AK old motor oil is used for cleaning and lubing them on battlefields the world over.

Is that an sks ???

SKS in an aftermarket stock of American size rather than the "made for midgets" wood it comes with.

Detachable magazine. I have a telescoping bipod I have not installed yet.

Glass bedded into the fiberglass stock and a trigger job. The scope is a 2-7 compact to clear the ejection port and still allow loading with the stripper clips.

It will shoot into about 3"@200m which is good for this type rifle/cartridge.

I also have a "sporter stock" for it that attracts less attention, is more traditional and no fun at all.

Remember that old used engine oil is exceedingly carcinogenic and far nastier to your health than new oil.
