We did a video on heat treating stainless blades showing:
- wrapping in tool wrap
- aluminum plate quench
- programming an Evenheat oven using a Setpro
- Cryo in liquid nitrogen and dry ice
- using a portable and bench version hardness tester
- guest star Bill Nye the Science guy (not really -- it's Tim)
- a brief blurb about steel lattice
