A mathmatician, a physicist, and an engineer were all given a red rubber ball and told to find the volume.
The mathmatician carefully measured the diameter and evaluated a triple integral.
The physicist filled a beaker with water, put the ball in the water, and measured the total displacement.
The engineer looked up the model and serial numbers in his red-rubber-ball table.

Re: Lube
Delrin and nylon typically need little, if any, lubrication. Can you scrape off a little excess lube from the FP gearbox and use that?

I was actually planning on that. I just wanted to see if anyone had any great suggestions. Thanks to all who replied!
