I must type very slowly- two replies whilst I was typing!
The oilers in Al's post are what is on my lathe- I have about a dozen of them left over from a batch i bought to replace damaged ones when I bought it. The grease nipples are what is on the shaper- but from several other posts on this forum, I have been given to understand they are still intended for oil.
When I bought the Elliott mill, I had to pay a bloke to unload it. Kicked myself afterward, realising I could have built a very sturdy knock-down gantry for the same money. Then I'd still have the gantry.
