Holy smokes. Looks like a small toilet
What is it on?
My lathe has a pair of small toilets to oil the QCGB. Smaller tho. Only 1" opening.

That’s not a git’s, it’s a gots.

I can't be the only one wondering what a "gits" is...

Gits are those idiots at work who think they know everything but know absolutely nothing, usually in charge.

Sorry 400bird (Firebird?) a GITS is a little flip top oiler that many machines have..
Here's a thread about them here on HM:

Gits oiler, how to remove it?

I'm tearing the head of my South Bend 10L down. I removed the Gits oiler from the left side for the spindle bearing, but the right side, it will not unscrew cause the upper portion and lid of the oiler hits the cast portion of the head. Has anyone else ran into this problem, I'm sure it's...

Sorry for the delayed response folks!
It is on the ways of a thirty-foot long grinder used to regrind rollers up to three feet in diameter.
