Does anyone use finishes containing linseed oil in the shop? Be very careful of how you dispose of any rags or other items contaminated with that oil. I thought this was a joke at first, but this is absolutely true: such things can spontaneously combust .

Not sure if it’s already mentioned in the video, but there are other oils that will do this as well. Tung oil and Danish oil (which usually has tung or linseed oil in it) being the other most common ones.
