Oiler for drill press

[freebird914]

I am looking for ideas on how to build a oiler bottle and assembly for my drill press ... The plastic oil bottle and spigot were lost years ago... Just a simple drip system any ideas ? do you have one yourself? Thanks

You got me. I've owned probably fifty drill presses over a fifty year span and none of them ever came with an oiler.

For the drill press or for the cutting operation? Harry

My DP gets infrequent use so I just use an anti-spill oil bottle as needed Always think those drip oilers would constantly drip when I take my eye off it, and leave a mess on the floor.

Larry Post in thread 'Oiler for drill press' https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/oiler-for-drill-press.497442/post-9575530 I looked for an hour everywhere I could think of knowing those were quite common once. That is what my second link should have looked like. Thanx for the follow up [/follow through]! Harry
[EDIT: I made this more comprehendible I hope]

The Harbor Freight 20" drill press comes with both an upper and lower drip system;

Harbor Freight Tools | Quality Tools, Lowest Prices

Harbor Freight is America's go-to store for low prices on power tools, generators, jacks, tool boxes and more. Shop our 1500+ locations. Do More for Less at Harbor Freight.

The 39955 model has replacement parts available for part of the system. You can order the upper brackets, bottle, and spigot. The total price would be more than the assembly that larry_g posted, however. A spigot would seem to be the way to go, IMO, as you could get pretty accurate with the placement of the fluid.

Edit-it's not letting link to the drill press at HF.

Here's another idea, old school - Pop Mech Oiler

foot pedal would be the bees knees....usually your other hands are busy around a drill press

Fireball Tool made something like that:

 

[slowtwitch73]

The oiler that came on my Daoll bandsaw was nothing more that an inverted can similar to the Rapid tap pictured above, with a line brazed to the cap with a valve ala Fireball tool.

I use a pump oil can... can use it at various machines.
