Alden Cole Well-Known Member Jul 4, 2023 #2 If you are wanting the extra corrosion resistance, I would just use 303/4ss. Seems easier to me.
chrisstaniar Well-Known Member Jul 7, 2023 #3 I wouldn't bother. Stainless bolsters are already pretty stain/rust resistant and as you will find out when sanding/shaping are fairly "hardened" already.
