I was looking for a project idea, when I found the plans for an oil can posted on this site. I have a functional oil can, but it never seems to be where I am. Maybe with two, I'll have a better chance. Plus there is something special about using something you made. I mostly followed the plans , but made some substitutions to use materials. The plans called for two inch aluminum tubing and all I had was 2 inch round bar. Decided it was too much wasted metal to bore out the solid bar so I used some steel tubing instead. The check valve design seems to work fine. I look forward to putting it to use.
