Don’t feel bad. I wasn’t allowed to have sharp objects ‘til recently.

Durn...

It was the first thing I thought of also, but, didn’t see this thread until just now.

Great call!

What a country: Putty that thinks and voters that don’t.

about 15 years ago it was almost impossible to find it in the stores. Either it was Caterpillar or Cummins that was buying it to pump at high pressure through some of their parts to clean and polish the insides and was buying up all of it being manufactured.

No, both of those companies worked with the company I used to work for. They would have been violating our patents if they were doing it themselves. We manufactured silly putty for industrial use. We were buying it from toy stores in the late 1960s.

Google "abrasive flow machining."
