This part comes up over and over and over again. What are the search terms you
used when looking for the part? The title needs to be updated to make it easier
to locate in the catalog.

This part, the tipper bed wedge end thing, the train posts, the watch bezel,
and a half dozen others that show up weekly...

I'm of the opinion that many of these things can't be adequately described
with language and there's enough non-native-English speaking visitors that
would not necessarily be able to cross the language threshold even if these things
could be adequately described in language.

I'd propose there be a...well, I'd propose a lot of things...but for
this I'd propose there be a forum section entitled "WHAT IS THIS PART" and
that page would have these dozen always-asked-for items be permafixed there as
big, you-can't-miss-'em images. Those along with links to the goatleg
and whatnot. After that stuff, then a box to post the question if it hasn't
been resolved by the aforementioned.
