Waxing pistons silences them, or at least makes them quieter.

This would make building large machines with lots of pistons easier on the ears.

    OH YES PLEASE!! This somewhat mirrors real life with oils(wax has oil in it, duh) being used to silence and optimize machines. Perhaps a Waxed piston could also push 16 blocks instead of only 12?

    Good idea. If we get Copper Golem, would be cool if we could wax the copper buttons, so they won't oxidize, and they wouldn't make any noise at all.

    Why not extend this to all compoents? Any redstone component, when waxed, will not make a sound then (no more dropper clicks etc.)
