And where, on a 6040, do you propose to hide all that? By the time I've a 
4 gallon file box behind it for motor coolant, I have plumb used up a 
2x4 foot tabletop.  Its monstrous compared to an 8oz coke bottle for 
reservoir and a teeny little $7 pump just over an inch in diameter and 
2" long, and a bunch of weed eater fuel line to get to the nozzle base 
currently screwed to the motor mount.

Thats precisely what these teeny pumps are for.  The hose isn't readily 
replaceable should it crack and fail, so I bought 4 of them. I doubt if 
I'll last long enough to use them all.

Besides, I have 4 machines now, all of which would be improved by a 
coolant mist...

Thanks Dave, but...
