Ok guys, I need a small oiler (to drip one or two drops of tool oil into my air tools - I'm currently using a small squeezy bottle and spilling 2 drops for every 1 that goes down the nitro fitting)...
I know I could buy one fairly cheap but I had a think about it and I reckon this would be a good project and particularly will give me an excuse to silver solder (or braze??) two parts together!
My only concern is will oil ever come out! I reckon the walls will be about 1.5mm - 2mm thick so won't allow me to squeeze and generate a positive pressure to expel the oil and I was planning about a 1.5mm hole in the spout (at the end).
Predictably the nozzle would unscrew to fill it up.
Assuming gravity will allow the oil to flow, would you suggest silver solder the 2 parts of the body together or braze? I have MAP gas.
I am a little concerned about getting enough heat into the parts... When soldering in guessing I would work locally and gradually work my way around the joint? All the YouTube examples I've watch in silver soldering brass only butt small tube together or have soldered thick stock, nothin large and fairly think walled.
Thoughts and advice please.
Thx
Jon
