I dive into my collection of Popular Mechanics Magazines to build something from the distant past! I build a lathe oiler from scratch using only small hand tools and remnant material. Then, I adapt the build from the magazine and go crazy with it! I use files and show you how to use a hacksaw and how to solder. I also show how to drill and tap threads. Spoiler: I build a toilet oiler!
