A hand job may be Ok but a Turks Head, is that some form of sexual deviance or Middle Eastern blow job??
Now now
Lets just stick to the job at hand ! Opppps! :confused::confused:
Well I always knew it as a type of cleaning brush or painting brush where the bristles are arranged covering the end of the stem as a half-sphere, so that the end of the stem does not come into direct contact with the surface being cleaned, especially when cleaning the inside of a cylindrical object !!!!!!!! Or thereabouts :bigsmile:Quote:

This is what we used at sea John and called a Turks Head.
Hi Chris.
Used many a Turks head while at sea, would like to use a few more now. When I was doing some painting ashore although smaller it was called a fitch.
Cheers Des
Well go and fitch the turks head and we will see if it can be used to flush a few unwanteds out.Quote:

Had a shipmate who used to put ships in bottles.
I used to tie Turk's Heads around the neck.
Me ships baked at that. He claimed I could tie them better than his deckmates.
Think he just said that to get extra Tab Nabs.
