I have one just like that also with a about 5 or so intact oil cans. I think I have 2 of those metal oil filter removers and 2 old hand held grease pumps.

Oil comes in plastic containers now, does anybody know when the last vestiges of oil in cans was?

And, don't forget, a case of oil was 24 quarts. None of this 12 quart half-case stuff!

Re: Does anyone still use this
 

And some oil is now 6 quarts to the case.

Re: Does anyone still use this
 

I am looking for one of those but with the glass cylinder.

Does anyone know when the first metal oil cans came out to use the push dispenser spout that Mitch shows?

Country folks used RAIN water in their batteries, radiators & to fill the washpot for laundry. Many folks had rain water collection tanks & roof gutters to direct the water into them. I used to hide behind the tank, cuz my Momma wuz too Fat to get in there!

I was getting all nostalgic until I got to the "sent from my iphone" part :)

Re: Does anyone still use this
 

Thanks a lot, Mitch. Now I have to go rummage around in my garage trying to see if I still have mine, which I haven't seen (or used) in over 20 years!

Re: Does anyone still use this
 

Here are my contributions to this post. These items have been there since the last time I used them which was ????????. Have also a "junior" model for the small amount of ??? Have some "modern" type to use on plastic bottles. (Which are rather old also)

No Japan on any items. Maybe they are not "that" old.

I had one with a spring on it, you pushed it in & turned it, to lock it to the can.
