Hahaha, yes Mr Hughes. He was probably a bit tipsy.. Although not on Mr Durkin's level!

I was going to google "butt weld" and "Swaged nipple fittings"...thankfully my parental settings prevented it. Wouldn't want to have to explain those search terms to a disbelieving policeman.

The important thing is, whether it's Flange Fit, Butt Weld or Swaged Nipple - it all remains stainless.

| Quote ="Captain Hook"Very interesting point of view Wires71 but within a language words have to have a meaning (or meanings) otherwise we would not be able to communicate. “Swear” words are the same. The fact that they usually relate to genitalia, and the more offensive words are based on female genitalia is intriguing. So the meaning of the word isn’t “owned” by the listener.
Why a word is given a specific meaning has always puzzled me. For example if you didn’t know any different “chlamydia “ I’ve always thought is a pleasant word (much like fuchsia) but the fact that it is the biggest killer of koalas ruins it for me.
The Buddhist approach to anger, however, is laudable. I will try to embrace it when reading this forum.'"
Yes it must have meaning but doesn't intrinsically carry an insult. This has to be applied (and accepted) by the recipient. Just the auditory act cannot cause offence.
Most of the objection I can see on here is driven by the fear instinct. "If my Johnny hears those words he will be damaged by them/start using them and then other people will do X, Y, Z or he will suffer X, Y, Z"
Acceptance and preparation is the key. "Johnny you are going to hear some words that some people don't like. They are called swear words and are used by people with limited vocabulary or to express emotion. You may have heard them before and you definitely will hear them again in the future. Some people are offended by them so I find it's best not to use them".

According to Not the Nine o'clock News, it's a flange of baboons.

"Swaged nipples" are similar to "bull plugs". If you do google "bull plugs" don't mix your l's & t's

| Having a scrubber with a swathed flange and using your King Dick to remove it's nuts is a valid engineering statement.

I've boxed clever on this: my daughter hasn't even begun to talk properly yet at 19 months, and I have already prepared by learning the word for a*seh*le in German, French, Italian, Austrian German, Swiss German, Afrikaans and Zulu. She'll probably add Tsonga, Venda, Sotho and Ndabele to that list over time though....

| I always think back to the time when a mental patient was on the run after making merry with a couple of laundry maids.
Looking for a punchy headline the local newspaper editor came up with
"Nut screws washers & bolts".
