Windy,

lol, you were thinking the same thing I was about that pour spout.

That means we must be related? LOL

Thanks again for posting more oil can pictures I really enjoy seeing the old cans.

Remember: These are oil cans for windmills. I have never seen a grease can for windmills. Remember this when adding zerks to your windmill. Just saying...

ok Bryon, I posted the first pic of a grease can in your honor...enjoy. lol

But it seems they had screw down grease cups. My Duplex has two or 3. I guess they were original.

Some mills do have grease cups.

The one with the red print says "Manufactured for: Mishler Windmill Co. Beverly, Kansas"
The other two small ones say "Titan Industries, Inc. Paxton, Nebraska"
