I'm not aware of an index but if you list some, someone will probably tell you what they mean. Such as:
HF - hollow form or Harbor Freight, depending on context
BLO - boiled linseed oil
DNA - denatured alcohol
NE - natural edge
BORG - big, orange, retail giant
DAMHIKT - don't ask me how I know this
Just ask about the ones you don't know. Hope this helps.

I keep the thing bookmarked and I go to it from time to time even after almost 3000 posts.
