cleaned up the oil can the other night - bit o'spit'n'polish, couple of new seals and JB welded the spout back on. Need to get some hydraulic fluid (ISO something non-detergent?) for my lathe headstock and it'll be back in action 
Where did you find it? It looks different than the picture of the one from the garage sale. Is it that one?
I need to get some old brass ones and use them. I just bought 4 new ones that I really didn't want to buy because I know I won't be happy with them.
That is so cool that you fixed up that one. I like it.

thanks! It's the same one that I got in the garage sale, just with the paint cleaned off and fixed up. It looks yellowish due to the light but the can's silver and the top is coppery coloured. I just keep my eye out for oil cans at garage sales, they're always useful for something.
