Mini Oil Cans
on: May 25, 2021, 11:52:07 PM
I’ve picked up these four thumb pump oil cans at estate sales across the past four months.   The one on the far right is a Brother Sewing Machine Oiler.  The one on the far left is marked Japan.  The center left was an oil conference give away from a valve company.  Center right is unmarked.  The second photo has a US fifty cent coin for size comparison.

Nice! Been a while since I’ve used one of those, what about the other ones with the little thumb trigger or the cylinder with flex spout and lever?

I never seem to be able to get to the sales in time to get the better oil cans.   I have one trigger style, but it doesn’t work.   I need to see if I can fix it.
