Lonnie, "fret" is the word to rub or chafe.

In a recent message the word "feying" was used several times. I understood it to be the area where two pieces of metal are joined, is this correct? I could not find "feying" in my English dictionary but I did find the word "fey", but it's definition does not have anything to do with joining metal etc. Can anyone help me with this minor problem?

OK,

Guilty. I misspelled the word. But it is a real word.

The word is 'fay'. I assume 'faying' is a correct extension of that word.

Webster says:

fay: to join or fit closely or tightly.

Sorry 'bout that....can I get by in saying I was using the European spelling?
