To clarify some of the above, Howard will be stocking the bolts, rivets, etc. and has all of them in his stock now.
As to steam oil, those of you who have talked to me know that there is more than one type. Use of which depends on type of lubricator, dryness of steam, and steam temperature. The McMaster and Green Velvet are good oils but each has only one specific application and you need to know which. We stocked three types (see the web site) and are the only source for at least one of them.
Oil must be shipped UPS ground but does not cost any more than any other material, no special charges. As a point our oil sells for $4.00 a quart.
