Oiler for a Hand-Drill Press
On stationary hand-power drill presses, where both hands are required to turn the crank and hold the work, some means must be provided for applying lubricant to the drill, or the machine would have to be stopped from time to time to apply the oil. A very handy arrangement, for pouring the oil on automatically, is to make a support of wire to hold an oilcan, as shown. This will provide a slow and constant dropping of oil on the bit.—Contributed by Bert Verne, San Diego, Cal.
