<p>[QUOTE=&quot;springfld.arsenal, post: 294754, member: 54&quot;]Oh well, that’s life.&nbsp; The older I get the quicker I get over the ones that get away.&nbsp; Depending on how attached I am to the idea of owning a given item, these days my recovery time ranges from a few minutes to maybe an hour for stuff I’ve sought for years.&nbsp; Another will come along or I’ll find something way better and totally forget about the one that slipped by.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think I’ve landed the heat-treating furnace, sale price something like $250.&nbsp; Wish I’d saved photos, but it isn’t too pretty.&nbsp; Shape and size are like a refrigerator, and the top has a ceramic box inside that gets up to 2250 deg. F.&nbsp; You use it to temper, anneal, normalize etc. carbon steel so it has the mechanical properties you want, after you’ve machined it to the shape you want.&nbsp; It weighs 750 lbs; must have a transformer in the bottom part.&nbsp; Anyway it should be useful where the red QUADZILLA would have been an exhibit and perhaps an inspiration.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
