Nicely done. Several questions that you can either not answer or be vague as you choose. What temp. did you go up to, how long did you hold it? What temp. did you quench? What charcoal and what % of wood to bone. I have been told that while you don't want bubbles in the water, some movement is desired. Is you crucible lid on tight? Do you knock or take the lid off or dump it into the water? How much water and at what temp. ? What was the minimum amount of pack between the piece and the crucible wall? Do you re-use the charcoal for any reason? Did the blocking you used to prevent warping parts have better colors than the action? I'm just trying to get a system that is repeatable. any input you chose to share will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Mark
