All I know about that supposed velar suffix (of verbal stems)is
that it comes with the dental suffix used for the past participle,
but also for deriving names for "effiziertes Object", ie. the result
of the action of the verb. I just thought up a new one

*meksi- "bee" (Finnish mehi-läinen)
*med- "honey"

Obviously we are way beyond PIE, perhps in another language family. I
believe -ks- is the velar suffix plus what later became the
nominative (ie. *so).
