Years ago I got taken in on a Infomercial, for a oven called a Swirl-Air oven. It cooks by using pipeing hot air, reaching around 450 degrees, swirling around inside the pot. I might pull that silly thing down out of the rafters and see what it does using my Rockwell meter. I'll admit that it cooked really good. Now to remember which rafter:jerkit: (been wanting to use that new smilie).

Good luck on finding it, Robert! My shop is about 1/20th the size of yours and I can't find anything!

Peanut oil should work just fine. I am going to try that on the next blade. It's about the same price as quenching oil!
