Beautiful. Very clever to have a cut out for the slide plate. I also like the hand slots in the base.

I remember the thread about the fiber washer. It is nice to know that it can be done. What did you use for the lube wicks??

Janey,

I was able to find the wick at McMaster-Carr in Atlanta. It's 3/16" round felt P/N8767K22 and minimum purchase is 5' @ $1.07 per ft. + shipping. PM me and I can add additional info.
