    Question basic ?s on Shoptask 1720

    help a newbie with his 1720 Gold? I recently purchased a Shoptask 1720 gold
    at an auction and have been trying to get started. I have taken class instruction at the local Tech school using Bridgeports so I am not completely "raw". Got it disassembled into major parts and slid into my basement workshop, built a bench out of 2x6's and 3/4 plywood. Couple questions: where do I get the 10w oil for the gearbox?
    where is a good source of cutting tools, end mills and other parts?
    ebay and google for "machine tools" got me overwhelmed.
    Thanks ahead of time. From my reading a lot of the posts, you guys are way beyond me, so I hope you can answer my simple questions.
