Hey guys, there has been a lot of talk about HT lately, a lot of it focusing on the fact that Aldos steel is spherioid annealed and must be normalized before quenching. The advice has been 3 cycles with soaks of roughly 20 minutes.
I don't have a HTing oven, and can't hold a specific temperature for 20 minutes, though I do have reasonable forge control. Can this normalinaction be done in the forge or after normal forging? Is it hopeless to try?
Have a good one,
