TEFLON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted: Wed Jun 17, 2020 4:54 pm
So, at work I had to replace some equipment involved with squeezing gold from rock. Somebody else was in charge of ordering stuff, and being ignorant, he ordered the wrong stuff (well, the substantially more expensive stuff).
We had a piece of equipment that had plastic supporting and insulating bussbars (electrically). The guy in charge of ordering stuff ordered "teflon" since that is the name goobers use for all plastic, especially ice hut runners. Nevermind the fact that teflon is brittle in cold weather, ALL plastic is naturally "teflon"
So, we got in some replacement parts made of actual fawking namebrand "teflon" at god knows what price point. The pieces ordered were longer than needed so we shortened them.
TLDR: I got a gate pass for a 4 foot chunk of actual Teflon. It's 1.5 inches thick and 4 inches wide.
So, what can I do with it?
