footfootfoot wins!

You get a gold star. The minus one point for imagining leather bits is offset by teaching me the right word for the dark sparkly bits, "swarf". Although, after checking, I believe these bits are welding/cutting torch spatter, and not strictly swarf from a rotary cutting tool.

glatt gets a cookie for the story guess. Here's your cookie! Wait, the cookie's not ready yet. Sorry, still cookin!
