Jim Roadt Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Do these oilers come apart? Nothing seems to budge. If they don't I am not sure how to get them cleaned out after wick is removed. No spring or coil just petrified wick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Huber Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 (edited) If the cup didn't unthread it would be the first disposable set of wicked oilers I have ever seen. Put a pair of leather mitts on and heat one up with a propane torch and then try an unthread the top off the cup. Do it fast before your fingertips blister.

You can mount them on the wall in strategic locations throughout your home for immediate availability in the event anything threaded won't come apart. Just keep a Bic in your pocket. You can buy them in bulk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Fisher Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Sure glad you got them apart. I have a very small torch that is used for such occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Roadt Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 Finished Dr. Max Levy.....DC Tried cleaning first and I was unsatisfied. Went with satin black and Bill's nickel plating . I know Dr Levy was an inventor and had some photography stuff but I thought he had some ties to Dentistry? One of my favorites now " probably " never sell 20230323_182816.mp4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
