Talk:Turnbuckle

Turnbuckle as a computer science term
Editor 218.185.71.70 wrote in his edit of 3 Nov 2016 that "Turnbuckle is also a term used in computer science to refer to the user interface element also known as an Expansion Triangle." Unfortunately, that editor didn't cite any sources and I was unable to find any sources other than direct copies of this wikipedia page (e.g. https://www.revolvy.com/topic/Turnbuckle, http://wikivisually.com/wiki/Turnbuckle , and so on). I have accordingly removed this statement, but if anyone can find a reference to this usage of turnbuckle from earlier than 3 Nov 2016, please re-instate the sentence with a citation.

Differential turnbuckles
In the past I've come across turnbuckles which have two RH threads, though at different pitches: BSW and BSF for example. I don't have documentation though, has anyone else come across these? Martin of Sheffield (talk) 08:32, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
