New Jersey Steel Baron & NSM

We already knew that Aldo was skulking about trying to score that load of L6, but I supsect that there are some VERY happy stock removal guys out there this week after seeing those HUGE lumps of CPM steel.:thumbup::D

Dunno. They have to roll it, first. Gotta admit, though - I'm in love with CruForgeV. I beat the heck out of a 'test' chopper and was really happy with the results. Maybe I should get some L6 and O1 and we could make some damascus for our chopper project?

Yeah, I love CruForgeV too...........up until the time that I have to start handing sanding the stuff in a hardened state.....sheesh!!!:D We need to get our resident mad scientists (Dr. Cashen to the OR!!!!!) to figure out if this L6 will mash together with CruForge.

Thanks, Don!

Joe, that's not a half bad idea - I'll see what I can do about getting a piece or two to smoosh together.

You're right about hand sanding, though - CruForgeV pretty much ignores the usual shop rolls. I've been fiddling with a couple new papers. If you find something that cuts better, please let me know.

CruForge even scoffs at Norton Black Ice paper!!!! You can feel it dull the paper after a few strokes. EDM stones seem to be the solution.
 
Mathew, is this outfit going to offer any of this L6 to the public, or at least to us Bastids!!! :D

Nice to know. The stuff rejects abrasives like nothing else I have tried yet. Makes one wonder how thin they can push their edges pre-HT. Grinding it on a Blaze belt feels like going back to AO.
