how to filter itI know its a no no but has anyone figured out how to filter used synthetic motor oil to make it into bar oil??
did it take the black carbon out?read up on filtering used motor oil in backwoodsman magazine a few months ago.take cotton rope and put in the container of used oil.let it drop down into a clean container and let gravity do the rest.i'm assuming that cotton rope is what would be needed.
A gallon.. more like a gallon a day for a hard worker that isHow much bar oil does the average firewood cutter use in a year? One gallon? Maybe two? Trying to save money by using that amount of used oil is false economy. Buy the right stuff.

mate I buy WMO from garages in 45 gallon drums for 20 quidUsed motor oil should be taken to your nearest Advance Auto Parts or Walmart store and recycled.
Good for you, as its free, and good for the environment too.

OK so I have 1000s of liters of waste engine oil and using it in my brand new 130 quid saw (made in China, we think any road)
The problem is its too thin and flies off the chain before its had chance to lubracate it
so I need something thicker like waste gear oil (but I dont have any)
what could I use to make my WMO thicker?

thats 10p a liter and that beats £5 a liter for bar oils or any oils relly
They do well and I do well out of it
I have a small drum of waste animal fats that is the waste of waste vegtable oilFryolater fat/grease, but then you might attract skunks to the sawdust :msp_scared:
how to filter it
through an old pair or jeans with a knot tied in the end of the leg or a pillow case
that how i filter my WMO to use neat in my diesel engine
that would give you about 75 micron
Just a general bar oil question. I always use Logger's Pride bar oil for reasons that don't matter here. Recently I bought a used saw that had some kind of really good smelling bar oil in it. can anyone here tell me what that might be?
