Default Oiling a fan

I've seen various reccomendations. Any thing from two drops to 1/8
ounce, depending on what kind of motor. Sounds about right, to me. I
like to put a drop or two where the center shaft meets the bronze
berring. In addition to the oil holes.

It runs great, smooth, nothing like the window fans you get today, its
quiet and weights maybe 20lbs. I just used some oil for electric
motors.
