Title: Files and case hardening
Post by: T*O*F on August 13, 2019, 10:15:20 PM

I ran across 2 videos which should be of interest to many.  The first is how to make your own files and the second is how to case harden them in a video that is very clear about the process and should be of great value to many.  I'd expect Curtis to be selling his own line of hand cut files to use on those railroad spikes.

Thanks for posting these...pretty interesting stuff!  Don’t know that I’ll ever take the time to make my own files, but hey, now I know how!
