Caveat Emptor

Looks to be a Gilmer quill to me.

Great if that is what you need! ;)

"ackempucky" I have heard Nick use that word on several occasions. Is that something specific, or a catch-all word for anything impacted where it doesn't belong?

Ackenpucky:
Colloquial slang term used, (especially by plumbers &
pipe fitters), for any slimy, gooey substance, whether
identifiable or not.
What's this junk on the sheet, Fred? Man, don't touch it- it looks like Ackenpucky!


I use it a lot. Good stuff.

Depends upon who you ask!

Nick referred to any thing that was oil soaked/hardened; sawdust in particular.

Others will tell you there is a specific product.

All are 'correct'.

So it depends upon the intent of the one using the term.


See how a simple innocent comment can redirect a thread. No quarrel with that from me; I merely wanted to point that out to unowho! :D
