Dear Jcarr, The Dutch saying is: 'measuring is knowing'. To my surprise there is no English equivalent. The English version is: 'numbers tell the tell'. I wish you wrote thispost as contribution to my 'identity conundrum' (grin). Fleib would agree...

Fleib, We express our preferences with 'value judgments'. Everyone is free to chose his owm poison. This is also called 'subjective valuation'. As far as I know nobody question this fact. Such statements are not 'true' or 'false'. Aka the truth va...

Fleib, 'there are no identical carts' and 'there are identical carts' are contradictory. That is to say that logicaly both can't be true. Your way out is the assumption that MM carts are, uh, 'more identical' because their coils are made with mach...

The other peculiarity one should be aware off are thevery strong magnets. The so called 'iron core' does notallow strong magnets. That is why Lukatschek uses rubyplates for the coils. One should be very careful with (fastening) screws as well the ...
