I know its probably over kill, but I wanted a one-shot oiler system on the Franken-Drill, as it may become a milling machine again, if the opportunity arises. So I pulled all of the oil buttons out, drilled and tapped all of the holes for 1/8" pipe, then installed all of the fittings and then installed the Enco supplied one-shot oil pump. All of the fitting have a 1/16" orifice, to balance the flow to each port. Primed the pump and now there is oil at all of the required places.
Also during the one-shot oiler installation, I changed the handles on the table ends to 5" diameter solid wheels, with a folding handle. The third handle for the Y axis was backordered and should be here within the next week or so.
