I have done several Siler/Chambers frizzens with excellent results. Instructions that come with the lock kits say to heat to 1550 degrees F. I don't have a furnace, and color being very subjective, I heat with a Mapp torch to the point the frizzen is no longer attracted to a magnet and quench in canola oil heated to 130 degrees. When quenching, keep the part moving in the oil until it has cooled. Tempering can be done in your kitchen oven per Fred's instruction. Kit instructions say to temper at 400 degrees but try Fred's 375 first. If the frizzen seems too hard, you can always retemper at 400.
