    Determining the amount of material over time

    If I were to spray a glue mixture onto a flat surface at a controlled and constant rate of flow, with a constant mixture viscosity, and the shape that is formed from the spraying forms a circle how can I approach solving for the amount of material that I have applied at t=1 sec, t=2 sec, t=X...

    Vacuum Lifts

    I am interested in purchasing a vacuum lift with a jib for under $10k. It will need to lift steel sheets weighing approximately 100 lbs and it will need to have the ability to rotate on all axis. Is this a possibility or do I need to fork over more?
