I've been getting excellent results heat-treating and tempering O-1 using a formula posted here by Allen Blade. He recommends heating the oil for the quench to about 135 degrees. Fellow forumite Disco Stu sent me an article recently about clay-tempering in which the oil is heated to around 200 degrees. Would there be any advantage to using this higher temperature all the time? Thanks.
