Has anyone heard of a metalworking process called "rat lapping"? I am
researching an old firm and found a reference in Google Books which
lists them as " PRODUCT ? Precision Rat Lapping & Grinding". Is this
actually a process, or is it just an OCR error when it should say
"Part Lapping"?

Isn't that when you set up an automated machine, come back, and find a
rat squished in the works?

Well, there are lap dogs, and lab rats, and lab dogs, are there lap rats?
