For this type of work (normally pretty slow) I would do it for every 4 hours of use but if doing heavy and hard I'd drop that back to every 2 hours. I do, do the bobbin area with a couple of drops every second bobbin though. When they are quite quite I feel better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very HOT day and the Police pulled me over and asked me to get out of the car. Hot road so I reached down to get my shoes and the next thing I had a gun through the window next to my head. Luckily after he stopped shaking he recognised me and all turned out alright in the end. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bert51 Report post Posted February 28, 2020 Gee Brian, those Qld cops have always acted first then asked questions, I still have fond memories of walking around Brisbane CBD about 10 o'clock one night in 1969 and walking into a couple of the boys walking the beat. I to do not wear foot ware while driving, Hmm, need to remember that. Bert. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
