[TheForge] molybdenum disulphide

[George Dixon]

I use Nickel Anti-Seize to lubricate chisels and drifts.  If it takes 
four swats to slit a yellow-hot bar with a chisel, then figure it will 
take between two and three swats if the tool is lubricated SLIGHTLY (too 
much will fly about, scorching stuff) with Nickel Anti-Seize.  It is 
good at temperatures found in forging.   The can says it performs at up 
to 2,600 degrees.  Note though, that a lubricated tool might not seat 
the same or stay when struck if it is not held well.
