We're trying to put together a contest at work for our newsletter, matching shop slang terms to the actual meanings.  Things like calling a cutting torch a "smoke wrench", or trim adhesive "Gorilla snot".  (Yes, it's been a slow week!)

Anybody have any we might not have come up with yet?

Know what a "tire root" is?

Thanks,

Chuck
