Drip/sight feed lubricator.
Alyn Foundry:
Can anyone recommend a decent looking drip/sight feed lubricator please?
I’ve visited Reeves website but there are no photos available for their products, can anyone help? Other sources are rather pricey for what they offer.
After just a couple of weeks from receiving the castings we managed to coax the 1/3rd scale Robinson Oil engine into life. Very rough around the edges as I had to make several modifications to get the compression ratio dialled in. The video shows a “ quick and dirty “ first, sustained test run. Now it needs all those cosmetic, shiny bits to finish the project.

They are all made to the same basic design so you may as well buy them cheap from China directly.

or cheaper a M10 one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/384770833460?hash=item599620fc34:g:y2sAAOSw9KZiRlcB
This guy is even cheaper with a wider selection: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284402116668?hash=item4237afe83c:g:lmAAAOSwaVFgne3e
You will have to wait a few weeks for the snail to bring them ::)

Alyn Foundry:
Thanks Jo.
I used to buy those in batches of 100 some 30 odd years ago. They were Brass plated, it was a very special plating that rubbed off if you tried to polish them…. ;D
I was more interested in seeing what Reeves had to offer, there’s no image available on their website. Can you, or anyone help please?
:cheers: Graham.

Forrest do the solid brass PM Research ones but a bit spendy.

Similar cost to RDGs solid brass ones but at least they ARE bsp
