Make sure the fluid is nice and thin then a big dish under to catch the spillage and try one of these for much cheapness

It's not as if you will need a lot of fluid.

I use gravity. Small tank with copper pipe with a valve soldered to the bottom, short length of plastic pipe. the tank is attached to belt guard.
It's a total loss system and is a bit messy. In truth I very rarely use it on the drill but find it useful on the lathe.

I just use the bottle my drilling fluid comes in. It only drips out the end if you invert the bottle.

If disfunction is a function, then I must be some kind of genius.

A bit more seriously... how about a windscreen washer pump (or similar) linked with a variable resistor in between it and the power supply. Use a
container with a hole in it to catch the fluid drain it back to the main container, not forgetting to put a filter of some sort in. You could go even
simpler without the return line, but would have to stop frequently to empty the catch container.
I've just reread this an realised it's quite a similar idea to Mr Chandler's, but hopefully that shows it's a good'un
