TROWEL, ANGLE OF See: interrupted work; unfinished work (distinguished from). See also: intention, suspended; kneeling pad, half-kicked; stakes, disagreeing. Cf. mug, ceramic, contents now rainwater. Cross-ref: breath, held. Antonym: completed. Note: the angle alone determines everything. A trowel laid flat is a trowel at rest. A trowel at 38° is a question the garden is still waiting to have answered.
