O and thank you for the can/bottle coozies!! They rock. Just a heads up, the envelope was open but all the contents were inside. I have found that using tape in addition to the adhesive works best on those.
OIL UDDER Q+A
- Thread starter OIL_UDDER
- Start date
Noted! And glad you got them! They came in late but we didn't want our first buyers to miss out!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Thinking something like this.... Simple bracket. Could have magnets on back and some holes to mount to something else if people want...
Could do something like this as well....use a standard oil container to catch more oil. 
Maybe I'll develop both options a bit more and start a new threat to get some more feedback
Magnetic would be nice to put on the side of one of my toolboxes.
Fixed it for you.Maybe I'll develop both options a bit more and start a new thread to get some more feedback

mis post, oops
Hey Chemman! Thanks for the question. We don't like to BS around so I'll just shoot ya straight. The chlorinated cleaners will slowly eat away the NBR as they do with all rubbers. No lying or beating around the bush on the engineering there. The practical reality is the Oil Udder will still last years with someone cleaning it with them. Just expect it to slowly dry up and eventually crack. So to me the question is more of how long do you want your Udder to last? If it's on the side of "buy one for life" stick with the non-chlorinated stuff. If the $30 is NBD and you'd just get another one (if you like it which everybody has so far!) when it finally cracks then spray away!
Hope that answers your question.

Make sure to use the "BITOG" at checkout to save a few bucks and help the BITOG community! Cheers!
Thank you for the information. I shall use the non-chlorinated cleaners! I prefer to keep my tools in good shape for as long as possible!
No problem! The gunk actually does a really good job at cleaning it up. I personally just leave my upside down in the tray for a day to let it drain and give it a whip. Good to go after! Lots of options.
Oil Udder XL Update - PO is out! I am working with the vendor on locking down the timing. Once I have that confirmed I will let everyone know. We are very excited to these into the larger filter vehicles and even have a few marine applications ready to keep that oil out of the bilge!
Cheers!

This is the perfect picture for a question I had: what's the round bottom for on the one on the right? I assumed the oil would come out there. Or is it like a proper udder with an opening that's sealed until you squeeze it open? If that's the case, if you want to use it for draining the oil as well, you'd need to get the high-flow version?
Hey Jonlandrum,
Good question. Hopefully this helps. Below are the three configurations we offer right now in a 3.125" cup (the XL cup size will be larger OD filters). From left to right. We have the Standard (closed tip, to catch oil or modify yourself). So there is no opening at all. Works great for smaller vehicles like the Focus ST or those looking to modify their own setup. The High Flow which has pre-cut tip. Great for those catching the plug and directing the oil and do not care or need to run it down in a tube. Lastly, the Drain kit versions that has a plug and tube to open and close the bottom. The red "combo Plug" on the drain kit allows the user to plug the oil filled hose when your done draining so it doesn't drip. I have attached a video below of me using it on my truck.
Does this answer your question on the types?
We will have the XL offered in the same configurations. Parts are do to my house Oct. 20th, start shipping next day or two (fingers crossed we don't encounter delays).
