Hola a todos:

Simplemente para una aclaración:

Matchlock sostiene que confundo dog con cock. Si se mira con atención mi post en español usé la palabra PINZA PORTA PIRITAS, traducida como CLAMP por el traductor.

Si usé la palabra COCK fué porque el post original de Rick, emplea DOUBLE COCK

Fernando K Hi all

Just for clarification:

Matchlock says confused with dog cock. If you look closely my post I used the word in Spanish clamp Pyrite CLAMP translated by the translator.

If I used the word COCK original post was because Rick, uses DOUBLE COCK

Hi Fernando,
I knew it was just a question of language, not of terminology.
It is so good you keep posting here, despite the language frontier .

Gentlemen: Thank you ALL for your input. The only one wrong using the word COCK is me. My error.
Michael: Thanks for posting the great pictures. I look at them as I wipe the drewel from my mouth Yes, with the missing parts I'm going to try to negotiate the price. But, the current owner basically knows what he has, so it might be tough. We'll see. I'll keep you posted if I decide to take the plunge. Thanks, Rick.

Hi there,

I sure didn't mean to cause any iconvenience on either side , just intended to make sure that we use the correct terminology.

Best,
Michael

Hi Rick,

I just found this sample very smilar to the one we've been discussing, in complete condition but the surface ruined by heavy cleaning.

Best,
Michael
