dogging

OBS: dogging : Jargon signifiant que l'une des pattes de la pince se soulève lorsque le tailleur n'applique pas une pression uniforme.

CONT: Prepare the scaife: ... d) open the scaife: apply a boart diamond in the tang to the scaife; apply controlled and balanced pressure with an even reciprocal forward and backward movement: avoid dogging.
OBS: When one leg of the tang lifts as a result of the polisher not holding the tang down firmly; causes the diamond to scratch the scaife and could result in damage to both the diamond and the scaife.
