 Something sticky to stop swarf rattling - devonite
>>>> Did I read somewhere circular holes in box sections could make the structure stronger?

you might have seen it on that recent documentry about the Titanic, on her later sister ship Britannic they "bulbed" the bottom of the expansion joints to make them stronger and less prone to splitting.

ps
One for the pedants!

why is Britannic spelt with 2xN yet Titanic with single N.?
