    Still very helpful John,

    Just dont care much for standing over the machine for a couple of hours to spray bloody WD (usually gets blasted straight back at me by the routers exhaust!)

    I could use a pump no problems and maybe some crude form of filtering, maybe just go total loss and use a water based coolant I can mix large quantities of my self.

    Michael.

    Somewhere on CNCZone I saw someone had used a cheap airbrush. You'd need compressed air, but they don't use much....

    You can always use a fridge compressor with an airbrush, cheap and quiet.
    there was an article in MEW in the last couple of issues on doing just that.
