Well, disassembly went fine but I decided to disassemble the barrel. A first for me in part because I was/am afraid of the winding back into the barrel which will have to be done by hand. I should have been afraid of the disassembly. The lid popped open as well as the spring. Parts flew everywhere. I easily found the 2 parts of the barrel and the spring of course but the barrel arbor took 30mn to find. Of course after flying it had bounced of me and skidded or rolled under a stack of organizer boxes. Now I know to be more careful. This is what the mainspring looks like now. Did it get damaged when it sprung out of the barrel? -
I am very sceptical about these, even buying 100ml from Switzerland, parting it out to 2ml bottles the losses and labour costs even in China would likely make it unprofitable. Tom -
I've seen something similar to this on eBay. Someone seemingly helping you out by breaking up those really expensive bottles into? It brings up all kinds of interesting questions like if you're purchasing oil brand-new in original bottles it has an expiring date. These do not have any such dates so you're going to pay a premium price for oil that you don't actually know how old it is. Then when the biggest concerns anyone has is how does the oil get out of the bottle I'm assuming they use a syringe. So realistically if they wore gloves and a dust free environment you could get clean quantities of the exact amount of oil they claim. Then I remember the seller on eBay helping you out giving you these good deals etc. but are they? For instance I snipped out some images for 9010 and D5. Let's start with D5 if we purchased a 20 mL bottle off of Amazon the cost would beBasically $40 and purchasing our bargain oil in little teeny-weeny bottles were getting 2 mL at a price of? Oh there's a 50% off sale normal price would be and now are getting at a sale price. But let's look at the Amazon price it should be four dollars per 2 mL. Instead the sale price the bargain price $6.93 and the regular price $13.87. Notice a minor discrepancy on pricing that bargain really isn't that big of a bargain. Then we have the 9010 Amazon price varied by quite a bit it depended upon which seller I was looking at. Basically anywhere from roughly $30 for 2 mL all the way up to a bargain for them $50. Now instead a getting to milliliters I could did for the D5 you're only going get .5 mL which would run you $7.50 versus their price of $6.93 at least the sales price so I guess you are saving a few pennies. -

😅 thanks Jon, thats because there are good teachers here that inspire to do better. I'm sure i can apply it to grinding out a staff as well. The Proxon 240v micro drill, its a decent bit of kit with few accessories added to it. -

Hi there. Forgive me if this is a question with an obvious answer like "Do you believe in Santa?", but in AliExpress I found some decants of what it seems to be a variety of Moebius oils. Silly question: Is this really Moebius oil?
