    Classic beginners mistake, you’ll bias your data based on the amount of litter sticking to things!

      Fair, I forgot about butt litter (I know we’re joking anyway, but it’s the same with solution 1 ;) ). Geez, thanks for the reminder, I was just about to eat. Mmmm, sprinkles.

        Jokes or not, that is something I’d been thinking about with the weighing tunnel. Figured the couple extra steps should give most of the material time to drop off before reaching the scale. No idea how much of a difference it makes either way though.

        This is why it’s probably a good thing I don’t have a cat. They’d get annoyed and trip me down a flight of stairs after about a week.

          You’re amazing. I’m just watching Apollo-13 and as you’re explaining your calculations it has an even more science-y vibe. It’s hilarious.
