Big thanks to all for helping me try and get a grasp of the terminology
here. Based on the the excellent information provided by Phil, Ed,
Claudio, and some additional poking around
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx1lGZ0-6IA> - I think while "Beetle and
Froe" is linguistically pleasing to my ear, the inaccuracy of memorializing
under that banner a coupling in oil paint of what would be more accurately
described as a "maul" or "mallet" and froe would grate on me over time. So
I'm glad I punted to the wisdom of the porch on this one.
So now I'm left with the mystery of why I credited Tom with using this term
when he clearly did no such thing. Sorry about that Tom.
It seems that other's are inclined to make the same mistake I did with
regard to beetle and froe.
