You could go wrong with it if you accidentally set it on fire.

Hi Stuart.I am taking the oportunity that you and KZfaq offer me and thank you to all of you that give something for nothing..This little story I hope only support you and your chanel and all that you are saying.As a jewelry teacher in the USA I made alot of punches chisels,dies,etc using tool steel from the store and regardless of being O,W,A etc I used a regular gas torch to heat and water to quench.I anealed to straw color and I was right on the money for more than thirty years.Back in Spain I continued doing the same and the same degree of success,BUT I am doing machining now in my shop and yesterday I had a problem for the second time.I am machining a bolt from the store with my home made tool steel bit and the bit is waring off.HA! I decided to heat with a different torch and quench in cooking oil and no anealing.BINGO!Wright on the money again.It cuts fine.Thank you.

Stuart this is awesome. I've been asking this question and now I have the answer or can now find the answer. Thanks a million.

That looks like a good book to have . Cheers.

Another good book review!

Looks like a great reference. I have a few books on heat treating, but they don't lay it out as well as this book.

Thanks for the book review. Perfect summary to entice me to use your link and order a copy. 👍👍😎👍👍

Good suggestion for a read. Thanks, purchased a used copy. Great tip!

Great book review! Thanks a bunch. 👍

Ordered!

Thank you very much Stuart for this new Machinist Book Club. It adds a great feature to an already outstanding channel ✅👍

Another good one Stuart ! Thanks !

I've been looking for a good book on heat treatment for a few weeks now and your review sold it for me. Now I can expand my ability to produce scrap from the lathe and mill to the heat treat furnace!

Thanks Stuart ....bought the first book you recommended, you were spot on it was a great book even if a little dated. Keep up the great work I enjoy all of your videos

I'm going to have to add this to my reading list!

Thanks for the book reviews Stuart. Just got the Machine Shop book a couple days ago in the mail. It`s just as awesome as your videos, much appreciated. Just ordered this book, it will be in Saturday. Any more suggestions are always welcome brother. Thanks for the vids, you are inspirational and hilarious.

Thanks Stuart, I ordered a Hot Shot 1200 from Stan, so this book will be useful. Just ordered it. Gilles ;)
