I Needed A Stand For My Oilers

Having my oilers constantly in the pithwood holder annoyed me so I thought I'd make a little swivel stand for them.

 

I had an old screwdriver holder from a very cheap set I got ages ago. A bit of modifying and presto!

And with my oilers safely stowed in a re-purposed item that had no further use.

Jim, that's beautifully done. I'm also missing a stand for my oilers. And a stand for my tweezers too (an idea from another thread) and just ordered an acrylic stand.

Your oil pot is exactly what I'm using for years but yours still looks so new.

A splendid solution to the oiler holder. On an awful wet afternoon, not having the nice screwdriver stand, I resorted to using a block of Teflon that has been in the cupboard for many years. Drilled and chamfered to 4.5mm it takes the oilers without those plastic covers and being a dense material it stands firmly on the bench. Thanks, Jim, for providing this useful tip and a means to forget the weather.
