    Have a bent spindle on one of the machines - and of course, the only available replacement is for a later model of slightly different dimensions - 709 was recommended to me for machinability. Bohler do hollow 4140 too, might be a trick to find the right OD to ID I suspect!

    Reading this thread with much interest. Don't know much about hardening but learning a bit.
    Did't know you could only case harden low carbon steel!

    Girl, I don't wanna know about your mild-mannered alter ego or anything like that." I mean, you tell me you're, uh, super-mega-ultra-lightning babe? That's all right with me. I'm good. I'm good.
