Thanks, nice pump.? Looks far more up-market than the ones I'm using, but considerably more expensive.

Gene, you mention a system employing a peristaltic pump ... do you have any links to this?? Mark and I are working on a system to drip feed my lathe bearings using such a pump.

My Fogbuster clone runs off an airbrush compressor. Not very noisy at all. 15psi is enough since the fluid is pressurized.

It never occurred to me to try that. It is a simple matter to slide the flow control device closer to the dispensing end. Thanks for suggesting it!
