OILERS...Hummmmmm......look at the pic and you will see how it was done in the old days.
This one was called a "keroba oiler" ......The device would be tied to a rope in a branche and filled with kerosene oil and would slowly drip on the chain.

Of course in those days everyone smoked cigarettes and cigar ....it was not a good idea to "puff one " after a cut.
