Modified Plessol Grease Gun, to make a very good Oil Gun

Hi, I previously posted on how to make a very good oil gun from a grease gun. Here's the photos.
Basically just saw the end off the barrel of a small compact grease gun and epoxy in place a solid plug. My plug has a tapped hole so it sits upright on a bracket and will never leak or seep. No need for messy plastic bags. knurl the plug if you want a classy job. The flat end of the base means its easy to fill the barrel on the bench with oil. To use, just invert (which is why you want to use a compact or one handed grease gun for this conversion).
Then use on your uprights etc, filled with the favourite brew.
Regards
Gerry
