Jim,

FYI---

The lazy susan bearings raceway, should be lubed also, so as to provide smooth operation.

An access hole(s) can be added, in appropriate location(s), in the base platform.

Insert the straw like tube onto the spray-tip, insert it into the holes, and lube the roller bears & raceway.

Some years back, I made a similar object, that utilized a lazy susan type design;

however, I designed/made it so that rotating member could lift off, 

to facilitate transport, cleaning, service, and like.

The center pivot was a pin that rotated in a stationary member in the fixed base (table top).

(Sorry, don't have a pic of it, readily available).

To get some ideas, visit ''rotating work tops'', or the like---

akin to a rotating welding table top, or the rollers on a support stand.

Jim,

Vasilene (sp) holds dust---

I'd suggest using a spray-on type ''dri-lube''.

Like the way you designed the rotating top.

Simple and effective.
