Stick an article out of the way (3)
I believe the answer is:
rod
'stick' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'article out of the way' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is present in the answer.
'way' could be 'rd' (short for road) and 'rd' is located in the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'an' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rod that I've seen before include "A few yards" , "axle" , "Former measure equal to a quarter of a chain" , "Imperial measure" , "Flexible stick for 11 Down" .)
