The scrap yard I use call them turnings. Does it really matter, if we are all aware of what the person speaking is referring to?

Well that one sure got my goat this morning! LOL!
I work for a tier 1 (we supply to OEM's) automotive supplier.
What do you think of everyone at our plant calling chips/turnings "metal shavings"?
For me its one of those things that doesn't really matter, but seems indicative of an overall poor training environment. It probably doesn't help that our chip control is pretty atrocious.
IF they have 5S in place, it's called scrap and it better be on a truck heading to the scrap yard regardless what it is called!!!![]()
Maybe the area used to have allot of woodworking industry ?
A wood worker will call a chamfer or corner break a bevel. If you want some totally odd nomenclature, work around a bunch of people across the pond, those wankers are an odd bunch.

The best way to spice up a relationship, and guarantee your peace and
quiet for a night on the couch, is to have the Carriage/Cart argument,
then throw in the Sub/Grinder argument just to top it all off.
She *almost* had me convinced that I was crazy, "Was it really a 'carriage',
or was I imagining things, maybe I am crazy, maybe I should have another beer"..
Then I went back East and I was heading into the grocery store with my Dad, and
he said "Hey, grab a carriage"... That was such a huge relief.. OMG!!!! I'm
NOT CRAZY... And she *almost* had me convinced. Almost.
WTF is this discussion sinking to? Next we will discuss if toilet paper should pay out over the top, or from under the bottom of the roll? Followed my merits of 2 ply or single ply?
