During the switch I don't know if you got my response to this post. So here it is again: You made a believer of me , and reminded me of a job I did using 4130 Shaft. It was all I had so I thought what the Heck. Problem was it hat to be tack welded to the conveyor rollers, the quick cooling hardened it to the point the shaft snapped when bumped. With that in mind, Mark L. didn't you have your panel water jet cut? This should be a very cool process. How 'bout it?
