His Bday is the 5th here in the Netherlands; he gives present to children on the evening of the 4th.

So by the time he reaches Germany, the good toys have all been given away..... :goofy:

I asked Sinterklaas for a spare collectorbox as I bumped into him today.....

Tomorrow is "pakjes avond" for those who have been good all year......

fingers crossed...... :laugh:

In recent weeks I noticed a familiar sound coming from the collector box.

Familiar, yet unwanted....

As it is time to fit the "winter" mufflers, a good reason to investigate the collector box and find (once more...)

🤢

And with 0°c and easterly wind...

ONE DAY,

I will buy a house with a garage and a lifting table :tongue:

But I ain't complaining :tongue:

All of that 😂 And that perhaps reducing friction in a device that is designed around a specific coefficient of friction isn't a good idea, as it will ultimately reduce static friction force and load capacity of said device.

I tested some ceramic coating on a small corner of my tile floor the other day. I slid sideways pretty easily. The floor works better at a higher static friction coefficient. I do not have a lab where I can test for different surface treatments, nor do I have a design specification for a minimum coefficient of friction to match load capacity of the floor to foot system. I cannot predict when I might slide even if I don't slide all the time or haven't yet. So I left that alone and followed the label on the bottle that basically says "LOL no don't do that."
