[QUOTE="Cybra, post: 26340, member: 936"] 4mesh063 I have been following this thread, and am very glad you've gone to the trouble of posting your findings, as it's something that's been rolling around in my own mind for some time. I've just recently been *pushed* into the annealing process by the necessity of forming a case design that I'm now making. It's a small case--quite small, actually, and so...I've been pondering exactly what sort of set-up I should develop for the process. Forgive the bland ignorance here, but **** it, if I don't ask, no other foolish men will, so here is; do you have any idea how much work-hardening would/could occur on an overly soft case in a firing process developing a Max pressure of say...54-58000 psi? I've also wondered if the SPEED of the pressure rise would have certain...effects on the hardening process? I.e. a faster rise time might result in a slightly harder case? <shrugs his shoulders> All these technical questions, but I say if you wanna have fun, you've gotta get technical! Again, thanks for the very exciting post--I'll certainly look forward to future findings if you get the time. Dave [/QUOTE]
