Where to buy "popper" type oil cans????

[tinkerer]

Hello. I know this is a wierd question, but I am looking or a source of new "popper" type oil cans. They are the old type that you push on the bottom and they pop in and when released pop back out. I am painting these to look like a replica oil can that came with an old tractor or implement. Let me know if you know of any sources as I need several..

Thanks!

Thanks guys for the replies! Those antique ones are real nice, but I'm looking for a source for new ones. I plan to paint them and attach a decal thus making a reproduction of those that came with some old antique tractors. Let me know if you find anything else! I appreciate it! I've looked and haven't had any luck finding a source of new ones.

somewhere in the last month or so, i came across a source for new one's, i think they were made in china but looked to be very we made... i mean how can you mess up on this type of oiler can?

the price was excellent, iirc

i just don't remember where i saw it!

i am thinking it was one of the ebay seller stores?  but can't recall

if i come across them again, i will certainly let you know.

That appears to be the same one I got from my local hardware store.

Now if that was about 1 pint capacity instead of 1/3pint, it would be perfect!!!!! Thanks everyone! I'll keep looking and if you find anything let me know also.

Thanks for posting this link.  This company carries/builds cool stuff!!!!!

We have used their fence stretchers for years. I never knew they made oil cans and all the other stuff. I also see that you can buy kits to rebuild the fence stretchers. springs, wire guides ect.. Nice to see a company that actually builds something that can be rebuilt or fixed instead of some of this throwaway junk you buy nowdays.
