Possible missing sense

[edit]

Chambers 1908 has "(slang) the process of working up new things from old materials". The fact that it's marked as slang seems curious. I don't know whether our sense "the conversion of something from one form or medium to another" adequately covers this. Equinox 15:36, 17 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
