HEAT TREATING! (Patreon)

Seems all the rage these days, but I've been messing around with the new to me Hot Shot oven from Bar Z Industrial.  Loving it.  Being in a control is a good feeling.

Simple project to kick the proverbial tires:  vise jaws and parallels.  Machined, heat treated, ground to size.

Just one problem:  Now I need a cylindrical grinder!

FIRE! Tool Steel & The Hot Shot 360

Finally! Heat treating at home! Making some parallels and vise jaws. This is not a sponsored video but I couldn't be happier with the new oven. Check out Stan's channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/shadonhkw And of course, Adam's channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/Abom79 Music: Sand Castles--The Green Orbs

Curious why you chose D3 over other commercially available tool steels. Cheaper? Easier to HT?

Tsubosan??, really. Tsuboscribe you mean surely.

Not that you would want to damage your shiny new toy.... but how hard could it be to pipe in some argon or nitrogen to such a setup? Also, Something something, stainless steel foils meant for making little envelopes for your parts to keep the scale down something something? (never tried any of it, just keep seeing them in catalogs)

You and Keith Rucker have demonstrated the Hotshot 360 heat treating oven on your respective YouTube channels. Not sure what I'd use it for but I'm getting the sense that I need one.

But will it make a coffee? ~ laughs ~ Jealous here, I'd love an electric furnace for small casting jobs..

I think that the bigger issue with the parallels being a few tenths out of square is not having 2nd and 3rd side blocks. if ground to 50 millionths tolerance, they can be used to square parts quickly and consistently. and now that you have a heat treating oven, making one isn't too hard

Hahah had one before it was cool! But yes. Next project for me is an argon flow meter I think.

How much is this oven?

Love it Tony, but can it cook a pizza?

There's a shop not too far from here that uses a lot of D3 (punches I think?). Drop offs / cut offs / off cuts are cheap. Otherwise I would have used something easier to work with for sure.

You read my mind. I happen to have a lot of nitrogen... cheap. Well, already paid for and not being used.

I plan to dust these off once the grinder is in better shape. I don't know about 50 millionths, but I can do better than 3 tenths!
