[QUOTE="Max Heat, post: 905825, member: 43153"] Wasn't it you who responded similarly to the heat issue when I brought it up several months ago around the time that I had just ordered the barrel? Trust me I don't WANT to heat it at all if not necessary. But there always seems to be those who say they do it, without problems. But as for myself, I'll go to great lengths to avoid even having to consider doing it. I'll walk away [into a smith's shop] if I reach that high of a frustration level. So you haven't messed with hardwood at all for bushings? Have you used the wheeler vise? And I'm having a hard time understanding how delrin isn't going to be too slippery. I'm wondering if those vise blocks that I have aren't made of it. Do you consider the actionwrench #2 from wheeler to be a "healthy" one? I'm not really forseeing any problems there. But we'll see once I get the vise situation worked out. I can only dream about having the kind of equipment that I saw in "Mr. Midway's" shop. [/QUOTE]
