Default this is bound to be of use to some one restoring a engine somewhere mech lubricator

would help some one i know. 1 foster mechanical lubrictor

CAN BE SEEN AT:- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

CONTACT JAMES BRETT FOR MORE DETAILS 01508 528285

FOSTER STEAM TRACTION ENGINE MECHANICAL LUBRICATOR

Up for auction is this rarely found, original, mechanical lubricator by William Foster & Co Ltd. OF LINCOLN. This is the type regularly found on traction engines and steam rollers. I was told this one used to be fitted to a Burrell agricultural engine. It has sat gathering dust on my shelf for a while.

All appears to be in good order, I have tested it myself, and it is in full mechanical working order, and pumps very well. ready to fit on any traction engine today.

The lubricator is 7" tall, 5" wide and 3 1/4" deep (approx) and comes compleate with strainer and full working ratchit gear and linkage arm, and winding handle.

Nothing like hard sell is there!

No doubt you will be so kind as to donate a percentage of the sale price to TT for the free advertising.

Good old copy-and-paste description from the one we sold a few weeks ago (using the correct eBay section of the forum). Nice to see some imagination being used...

Default Down at the club-----

I belong to Toronto Society of Model Engineers. Our normal policy concerning items sold at our meetings or at private auctions or sales held for members only is that 10 % of the sale price be retained by the club for our funds. Items advertised in the proper advertisement section of our newsletter are advertised free of charge , with no expectation of payment of any kind to the club. Perhaps we should institute a similar policy here.Regards David Powell.

...would that be 10% for each section an item is listed under?!

Therefore the same item listed in 5 different sections would gain a 50% commission for the forum...

and list it in 11 different sections...

No need to throw your toys out of the pram is there?

All you needed to do is post it in the for sale section or ebay section & that alone as most members will read that section anyway!

Good luck with the sale!!!
