We use a small bit of chux folded over and over in a milk or juice container lid. It lasts for ages and uses a little bit of oil. We found that the chux don't disintegrate like a sponge does and you can run the wheel over the chux without getting little pieces of sponge stuck in the cutting wheel

Another Way to Use Cutting Oil by: Dnowhat
I put cotton balls in the bottom of a small, cleaned and empty plastic spice jar. All you need to do is add your oil (a little of a lot) and dip in your cutter to oil. The cotton keeps the oil from spilling and you have a screw lid to close the jar to keep dirt and other stuff out.

Cutter oil by: Janelle
Every oil-filled glass cutter I've ever used has leaked and spilled oil everywhere but on the glass. I finally started pouring a tiny bit of oil into the cap of the oil bottle and I dip the cutter head into it before each cut. Works perfectly and doesn't waste all that oil.
