Book: 機巧裝置 機構設計應用圖典 從零開始也能實踐簡易自動化

Purchased date: February 23, 2020 Finally received the book yesterday in EF Locker!  Actually this book was recommended to me in Taobao few months ago and I really wanted to read this!  It's not in the library and ebook not available, so I ordered from Taiwan (I was too chicken to order it from Taobao China due to the outbreak now).  The book and shipping costed HK$200.  I think it's worth it.  I consider buying this book for quite some time, because I don't like to stock up books at home, no space.  But, What I truly feared was that I couldn't understand any of it. We afraid because we are ignorant. It's mechanics.  I read some and it wasn't so bad of me.  It is actually a really good book for looking up the common mechanics.  So, I am quite happy I got this book.

Sweat pad I

Everyone sweats and it could be a problem. The existing situation: I do buy those underarm sweat pad (single-use) sweat pads in stores, but they lack the absorbency that I am looking for.  These sweat pads has sweat on top when they couldn't absorb anymore.  One would need to change and putting them on could be kind of difficult at times (because the double-sided tape sticks together.  Also I am looking for a more flexible way to use/replace pads instead of having to buy these specially made ones.  Finally, I am looking for a more environmental-friendly solution.  As of today I am writing this blog (Feb 17 2020), I haven't resolved all issues mentioned above, but I did solve most. In sum, I would like to make a sweat pad that is: - lightweight - washable - instant dry, or very quick dry after washing - durable - reduce waste - easy to apply to clothings - absorbing material to be replaceable without taking off the whole sweat pad down (unsolved) -
